Filing:

When you use OnlineDivorce.com, we help you fill out your divorce paperwork using a simple online questionnaire. You can fill it out alone or with the assistance of your spouse. Then, you will need to get a signature from your spouse and you can file the divorce forms with your local court. In Nebraska, you will typically file with the courthouse in the county in which you currently reside. If a petitioner is not currently a resident, but a defendant is, divorce is typically filed in the county where the defendant resides.

The actual filing process is explained in our detailed court-filing instructions that we provide along with your completed divorce forms. You can also obtain assistance from your local courthouse by calling or stopping by.

After the initial filing, you may need to follow up if there are any issues with your documents. When you use OnlineDivorce.com, we allow you to make small adjustments to your forms as requested by the court at no additional charge. Our goal is to help you obtain your divorce with as little hassle and stress as possible using our online divorce documents preparation service.

Residency:

Every state has specific requirements where divorcing couples must establish residency within the state they are divorcing. Nebraska is no exception.

In Nebraska, not only does at least one of the spouses need to currently live in the state, but there is a duration requirement that must be met. Before filing a divorce in Nebraska, at least one of the spouses must have been a resident of the state for at least one year. If the marriage ceremony was performed in the state, and at least one spouse has resided in the state during the entire marriage, then that spouse can do the filing.

There are many ways to prove that residency has been established. The easiest way is if one or both spouses have a valid and in-date Nebraska driver’s license, ID card or voter’s registration card which was issued at least six months before filing for divorce. If this is not the case, it may be possible to establish residency, by having someone who knows you or your spouse testify that you have lived in the state for at least six months. Additionally, it may be possible to use an Affidavit of Corroborating Witness form, and it should serve as proof you’ve lived in the state a minimum of six months.

OnlineDivorce reviews

Wesley H., Missouri

I started my divorce on my own, spending loads of money on lawyer visits in the beginning. So I decided to google for other ways and using this site was so much more simple!

James V., Texas

I had a very successful business at the time. So, making sure I had the right forms was very very important during my divorce. I was so surprised at how easy and smooth this process was.

Chloe J., Florida

After years of a tumultuous marriage, I finally decided that I needed to reclaim my life. I was looking for how to go about it and came across this site and they simplified and made the process of divorce easy for me. I never thought it would’ve been possible.

Will S., Colorado

Stress-free and easy! I was initially gonna hire a lawyer but I found online divorce the next best option. No muss, no fuss divorce. No big legal words that I’d have to have read 10 times to understand!

Marco P., California

California is expensive and divorce can be even more expensive in the end but I can say that this site payed everything out for me to follow, from child support to alimony. My ex agreed to go this way as well so it was a much less expensive option for us.

Tamara B., Nevada

Because of the whole dissolution of the marriage, I was struggling with two children and just in limbo with my husband at the time because of child support and alimony. I was a stay-at-home mom for 10 years. I just want to say that this site helped me sort it out. Thank you.

Theresa S., New York

I live in upstate NY and unfortunately one day I found myself in a situation for divorce. I was all out of whack, needed answers to take action. Enough was enough so I did it on this site. Everything was clear to understand, all forms and what to put in which box.

Livy B., Illinois

Onlinedivorce.com is the bomb! I mean, using it was so easy to follow. So, if you find yourself in this situation do your divorce here if possible. Documents for all stages, alimony, child support and all!

Custody of the child in Nebraska

Custody of the child

If there are children involved in a divorce, the couple will need to determine how custody should be handled. This isn’t something that a couple has to do all on their own. There are regulations in place that can help the court determine what would be the best possible custody situation for each case. If the parents already have a plan in mind, they can present this to the court and it will be given due consideration before any other agreement is made.

Joint or sole custody (either legal or physical) of children is determined according to what would be in the best interests of the child or children and is based on the following factors:

  • The overall health, welfare, and social behavior of the child;
  • The preferences of the children, if of sufficient age and capacity;
  • The child’s re­lationship with both parents before the filing for dissolution of marriage; and
  • Any credible evidence of domestic abuse.

No preference is to be given because of parent’s gender. Joint or shared custody may be awarded if both parents agree. [Revised Statutes of Nebraska; Chapter 42, Section 364].

Rules for child support in Nebraska

Nebraska has put into place specific state-mandated child support guidelines which apply in almost every case, barring special circumstances. With this, both parties’ gross incomes and certain child related expenses are considered when calculating the child support obligation. In the great majority of cases, child support payments continue until the child reaches eighteen years of age, and can extend until the completion of the child or children’s secondary education.

The amount of child support that is ordered will be determined based on a consideration of the current earnings and overall earning capac­ity of each parent. There are official Supreme Court child support guidelines and worksheets which are available from the clerk of the court. [Revised Statutes of Nebraska; Chapter 42, Section 364].

Rules for spousal support in Nebraska

Rules for spousal support

Alimony, also known as spousal support, is sometimes ordered by the court to help one spouse live in a manner established during marriage after the divorce. Support may be decided upon by the couple together prior to filing or may be awarded by the court in a contested case. The court may award rehabilitative (short-term) or a more permanent alimony to either of the spouses in either lump-sum payments or as monthly/yearly payments or both.

Either of the spouses can be ordered to pay reasonable spousal support or alimony, this is decided without regard to marital fault, and is based on a consideration of the following factors:

  • The current circumstances of both spouses;
  • The length of the marriage;
  • The contribution of each spouse to the marriage, including services rendered in homemaking, childcare, education, and career-building of the other spouse;
  • Any interruption of personal careers or education; and
  • The ability of the spouse who is seeking support to engage in gainful employment without interfering with the interests of any minor children in his or her custody.

More information is available as you begin filing your divorce through OnlineDivorce.com Please note that alimony payments can be ordered to be paid through a state depository in some cases.

Property division in Nebraska

Property division

When a couple chooses to divorce in Nebraska, they must distribute property in a fair and agreeable manner. This can be one of the most challenging parts of going through the divorce process for many couples. It may be possible for a couple to come up with a property distribution plan on their own without involving the court. In doing so, it can make for an easier and less-stressful uncontested divorce.

However, when there is some disagreement on how property is to be divided, the state has certain rules in place to make it easier.

Nebraska is an “equitable distribution” state. In this case, spouses retain any separate property which was acquired prior to the marriage. All of a spouse’s marital property, including gifts and inheritances acquired during the marriage, can be divided, based on a consideration of these factors:

  • The contribution of the spouses, including any contribution towards the care and education of the children, to acquiring marital property.
  • The current economic circumstances of each spouse;
  • The duration of the marriage;
  • Any custodial provisions that need to be made for the children; and
  • Any interruption of career or education of a spouse due to the marriage. [Revised Statutes of Nebraska; Chapter 42, Section 365].

Mediation support in Nebraska

A divorce will not be granted until every reasonable effort for a reconciliation has been made. If it appears to the court that there is a reasonable possibility of reconciliation between the spouses, the divorce actions may be transferred to a conciliation court. Another option is that the spouses may be referred to a marriage counselor, family service agency, or other agency which provides conciliation services. State-certified conciliation counselors are available in counties of over 250,000 people. [Revised Statutes of Nebraska; Chapter 42, Sections 360 and 808].
