Then the man should have either 1) demanded a pre-nup or
So, what's to stop him from demanding that the pre-nup include that she cannot file for divorce at any time for any reason?
What's there to stop him from including in the pre-nup that, if they DO get divorced, that he gets everything, including the assets that she had before they got married, and she's left with nothing but her own misery?
Do you see the problems that are inherent to this?
2) hired a better lawyer.
Even the best of lawyers can only practice up to the limits established by law (whether that law be constitutional, case, common, or statutory).
Those are much easier and better solutions than to change all of divorce law based on this case.
Specifically, what is wrong with being allowed to divorce a person, unilaterally, no fuss no muss, if they are willing to accept fault for the divorce?
After all, for all intents and purposes, it
is the petitioner's fault for the divorce! SHE'S the one who fell out of love with her husband! SHE's the one who wanted the relationship terminated! She SHOULD be considered at-fault unless she can prove otherwise!
How is it NOT her fault that SHE petitioned for the divorce! If he hasn't hit her or cheated on her, then he should not be punished by loosing assets just because SHE doesn't like him, anymore.
