The Utah state law lays down certain codes (30-3-1) or grounds for a divorce . for a divorce. These grounds include impotency, adultery, willful desertion (that spans a time period of a year or more), alcohol dependency, felony conviction, insanity, cruelty treatment and others. The couples who are not cohabiting for a period of more than 3 years can also get divorced. Women are commonly affected by irreconcilable differences and other issues when they pursue a divorce. Below are 5 reasons why woman asks for a divorce.
Adultery
A Woman asks for a divorce when her husband commits adultery. Adultery is extramarital sex i.e. sex done by the husband after marriage, with another person. Long-term sexual relations, or affairs, are obviously also grounds for divorce. The husband may develop a relationship with another woman and the wife would have no option but to end the marriage.Impotency
A woman can also ask for a divorce when she is not satisfied with her sexual life post marriage. The husband may suffer from medical, psychological and/or physical condition so that he is unable to have intercourse. In this condition, the woman can part ways. Legally, inability to produce a child or infertility is not impotence, and in turn not a ground for divorce.Financial issues
Financial issues are the most common reasons for divorce and nearly 80% of all divorces are caused by money and debt related problems. The husband might spend a lot and the wife would have to bear the expenses, or the husband may not provide ample amount of monthly expenditure to the wife. Some people give more priority and preference to money and the relationship itself takes a back seat. There are many other ways in which finances deteriorate a relationship. An expert divorce lawyer in Utah will help you get the financial aid that you are legally entitled to.Domestic violence
Women are most affected by domestic violence. Violence has been found to affect around two-thirds of the marriages and around 95% of sufferers are the woman. Once the vicious cycle starts, a woman finds violence an ongoing lingering threat that always affects her marriage. The violence and abuse may extend to children as well. Apart from divorce, a woman may also ask for legal action and subsequent penalties (including jail and fines) when affected by violence.Long-term imprisonment
When the husband undergoes a jail term for a long time period, the wife may quit the relationship. While short-term imprisonment (for instance a 60-day jail term for drunken driving) may not be a legal ground for divorce, a long-term jail term of 3 years or more is. The wife may not find the spouse around her and can start her married life again with another person after getting divorced.We at Utah Divorce are committed to offering you real legal help well within the time.
