In the area of divorce, Divorce mill is a term used for a jurisdiction that is typically used for divorces by non-residents and/or used to obtain a divorce quickly and/or allow for contested divorces quickly and with little or no compensation to the other spouse.
There are three countries, one US territory, and one US state that could be regarded in this sense. Most of these jurisdictions also allow for "irreconcilable differences" as a cause for divorce. These jurisdictions are, but are not limited to: The State of Nevada, Haiti, Mexico, The Dominican Republic, and Guam.
The three countries, which are Haiti, Mexico, and The Dominican Republic are fairly similar in this regard. These countries people typically go to get an overnight/long weekend divorce, or to get a quick and relatively painless contested divorce. In Haiti in particular you can get an uncontested divorce in a weekend stay. Visit the Austin divorce lawyer to learn more about divorce processes.
The State of Nevada only requires a 6 week stay to meet the residency requirements, the lowest in the United States. One easy way to meet this requirement is by having another resident of Nevada simply sign an affidavit testifying to your residency there.
Nevada allows for "irreconcilable differences" as a cause for divorce, the importance and notability of which was mentioned. Also, it has an extensive and straightforward system for marriage annulment, and attracts people who would prefer an annulment than a divorce. Learn more of this with the Austin divorce lawyer.
Guam is a territory of the United States, its courts are United States jurisdictional courts and the divorces it issues are valid in all of the states in the US.
Guam allowed for an uncontested divorce without either spouse visiting the country at all - one of the few places if not the only that allowed this.
After being charged as a "divorce mill", an agreement was made by the politicians of the territory with the lawyers and other lobbyists who did not want to change the law, to now require a 7 day stay in Guam to obtain a divorce.
Guam allows for "irreconcilable differences" as a cause for divorce, and Guam is much quicker to award a finalized divorce than many US states, taking a few weeks at most. Before the law was changed, it was a very attractive alternative for many Americans, as it was also quite affordable.
Divorces granted by other countries are recognized by the United States as long as no person's rights were infringed upon. The most notable in this situation is the notion of "due process", which is required by the Constitution of the United States and thus is not flexible. For more information about divorce and divorce processes and procedures, then visit the Austin divorce lawyer for more details.
