The Lieberman clause is a clause included in a ketubah, a Jewish wedding document, created by and named after Talmudic scholar and Jewish Theological Seminary of America professor Saul Lieberman, that stipulates that divorce will be adjudicated by a modern bet din in order to prevent the problem of the agunah, a woman not allowed to remarry religiously because she had never been granted a religious divorce. It was first introduced in the 1950s by rabbis in Judaism's Conservative movement. According to halakha when a couple gets divorced it is the man who has to present the woman with a bill of divorce, called a get. Without one the couple is still viewed as married. In the past, if a woman was refused a divorce because a man would not give his wife a get, the rabbis of the local Jewish community were authorized, under certain circumstances, to force the husband to do so; however since the Haskalah, local Jewish communities lost their autonomous status, were subsumed into the nation in which they existed.

The Jewish community lost its civil powers to enforce divorce laws. The unintended result was that rabbis lost the power to force a man to give his wife a get, Jewish law does not allow a woman to give a get to the husband. Without a get, a Jewish woman is therefore called an agunah. For decades traditional voices within the Rabbinical Assembly counseled that Conservative Jews should take no unilateral action on this issue, should wait for solutions from the Orthodox community, or joint action with the Orthodox community. While numerous solutions were offered, none were accepted. Liberal voices within the Rabbinical Assembly won out, the movement authorized unilateral action. Lieberman developed a clause to be added to the ketubah. In effect, it was an arbitration agreement used in the case of a divorce. According to leaders of the Conservative movement, a meeting was held between the leaders of the Rabbinical Assembly, representing the Conservative movement, the Rabbinical Council of America, the largest organization of Orthodox rabbis, in an effort to find agreement that the clause was valid from the standpoint of Jewish law, would be included in both Orthodox and Conservative documents.

At the time this clause was proposed it had some support in the Modern Orthodox community, Orthodox leader Joseph Soloveitchik gave this proposal his approval. However, the Orthodox movement never acted to include the clause, most Orthodox rabbis seem to have united in their rejection of the clause as a violation of Jewish law; as a result, it has only been used for wedding documents and ceremonies in some non-Orthodox denominations of Judaism. This clause is still used in many ketubot used by Conservative Jews today. In the intervening years, there has been growing concern regarding the legal validity of this clause due to the United States stand on the separation of church and state. For that reason, state courts have disagreed in terms of recognition of this clause, in a religious document, in a civilian legal setting; as a response to this concern, a separate letter was drawn up, signed by the prospective bride and groom, acknowledging that the conditions of the ketuba had been explained to them, that this letter would be recognized by them as a separate civil document, enforceable in U.

S. courts. However some Conservative rabbis grew to have misgivings about the religious validity of this approach leading the Joint bet din of the Conservative Movement to develop alternative approaches to the problem of the agunah, which include but are not limited to hafka'at kiddushin, retroactive annulment of the marriage.
