Fundamentally Rhode Island divorce complaints aren’t particularly complicated. The content of the form follows a standard format and recites specific facts necessary to establish jurisdiction for the court, the date of marriage, that a breakdown has occurred and it’s basis, the existence of children and their dates of birth and then your request for relief.

Attorneys differ regarding how a request for relief should be phrased, what should be included and what should not be included as a matter of common practice. Often times it is the relief that you are requesting that you as the client should look carefully at.
