NEBRASKA DIVORCE RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS
Under Nebraska laws, the district court has authority to terminate a marriage if either of the spouses lived in the state for one year just prior to filing the divorce petition. The divorce petition can be filed in a court located in the same county where either party is located. We will address any questions you have if you are concerned about whether or not you satisfy the residency requirements.
GROUNDS FOR FILING FOR DIVORCE IN NEBRASKA

- Adultery
- Cruel and inhumane treatment
- Abandonment
