Frequently Asked Questions
A Master Petition for Divorce is a legal document filed in court to formally request the termination of a marriage. It outlines the reasons for the divorce and the facts of the case.
This form is specifically designed for couples in Delaware who are seeking a divorce without any children. It is suitable for individuals who have mutually agreed to end their marriage.
While it is not mandatory to have an attorney to file this petition, it is highly recommended. An attorney can provide guidance on the legal process and ensure that all necessary information is included.
After filing the petition, the court will schedule a hearing to review the case. Both parties may need to attend, and if everything is in order, the court will grant the divorce.
Yes, you can request to amend the petition if there are changes in circumstances or additional information that needs to be included. However, this may require additional court approval.
Delaware allows for no-fault divorce, meaning that you do not need to prove wrongdoing by either spouse. Simply stating that the marriage is irretrievably broken is sufficient.
Yes, Delaware has a waiting period of at least six months after filing for divorce before it can be finalized. This allows time for any potential reconciliation or negotiation.
If your spouse contests the divorce, the process may become more complicated. You may need to attend mediation or a court hearing to resolve any disputes before the divorce can be finalized.
Is This Form Right For You?
Use This Form If:

- For those who wish to ensure compliance with Delaware state laws regarding divorce, this petition is crucial. It is tailored to meet the legal requirements of the state, making it easier for couples to navigate the divorce process.
- Couples who have mutually agreed to divorce without children may use this form to expedite their proceedings. By clearly stating their intentions and the facts of their case, they can facilitate a smoother court experience.
- In circumstances where one spouse is not contesting the divorce, this petition allows the other spouse to file for dissolution efficiently. It provides a straightforward approach to formally request the termination of the marriage.
Do Not Use If:
- – This form is not appropriate for couples who have children, as it does not address custody or child support issues. In such cases, a different form that includes provisions for children would be necessary.
- – If there are significant disputes between spouses regarding property division or spousal support, this petition may not be suitable. Couples with contested issues should seek legal advice to ensure all matters are addressed properly.
- – In situations where one spouse is unable to locate the other, this form cannot be used. A different legal process, such as service by publication, may be required to proceed with the divorce.
- – For individuals seeking a legal separation rather than a divorce, this petition is not applicable. A legal separation requires a different set of documents and considerations.
- – If either spouse has been married previously and there are unresolved issues from that marriage, this form may not be appropriate. It is important to address all prior marital obligations before filing for divorce.
