North Carolina family law overview

Understanding North Carolina's family law statutes helps you protect your rights and plan your case. Here's what you need to know.

Divorce Requirements

Residency6 months in North Carolina
Waiting Period1 year of continuous separation required before filing for no-fault divorce
No-Fault Grounds1 year of continuous separation — one of the longest separation requirements in the US
Fault Grounds

Adultery, Abandonment (1 year), Cruel treatment endangering life, Excessive use of alcohol or drugs, Incurable insanity (3 years confinement)

North Carolina requires spouses to live separately for a full year before filing for absolute divorce. During separation, spouses may file for post-separation support, equitable distribution, and custody. Fault grounds exist but are rarely used and primarily affect alimony, not property division.

Property Division

Equitable Distribution

North Carolina is an equitable distribution state. Marital property is divided fairly but not necessarily equally. The court considers 12 statutory factors including length of marriage, age, health, income, and contributions of each spouse.

Mahr agreements may be considered as part of property division or as a contractual obligation. North Carolina courts have addressed mahr in several cases, generally treating it as an enforceable contract if it meets basic contract requirements.

Child Custody

Standard

Best interests of the child

Joint Custody Preference

No

Key Factors
  • •Acts of domestic violence between the parties
  • •Safety of the child
  • •Each parent's ability to provide care and supervision
  • •History and strength of each parent's relationship with the child
  • •The child's adjustment to home, school, and community

North Carolina does not have a statutory preference for joint custody. The court has broad discretion to fashion custody arrangements in the child's best interests. Parenting plans can be submitted by agreement. Custody can be modified upon showing a substantial change in circumstances.

Child Support

Calculation ModelIncome Shares
Age of Termination18 years old

North Carolina uses the income shares model based on both parents' gross incomes, number of children, and custodial arrangement. The NC Child Support Guidelines provide worksheets for calculating support obligations.

Support ends at 18 or high school graduation, whichever is later, but not beyond age 20. North Carolina does not require parents to pay for college. Support orders can be modified upon showing a change in circumstances of at least 15%.

Alimony & Spousal Support

Types Available
  • •Post-separation support (temporary)
  • •Alimony (longer-term)
Factors Considered
  • •Marital misconduct of either spouse
  • •Relative earnings and earning capacities of the spouses
  • •Ages, physical, mental, and emotional conditions of the spouses
  • •Duration of the marriage
  • •Standard of living established during the marriage
  • +2 more factors

North Carolina distinguishes between post-separation support (temporary, during litigation) and alimony (longer-term, after divorce). Adultery by the dependent spouse bars alimony. Adultery by the supporting spouse means alimony must be awarded. This is one of the few states where marital fault directly determines alimony eligibility.
