What is an Uncontested Divorce?

An uncontested divorce is a type of divorce where both spouses agree on all the key issues related to their divorce, such as division of assets and debts, child custody and visitation (if applicable), child support, and spousal support (alimony). Since the spouses are in agreement on these matters, they do not need to go to trial, and the divorce can typically be finalized relatively quickly and with less expense compared to a contested divorce.

In an uncontested divorce, the spouses usually work together, often with the help of their respective attorneys or a mediator, to reach a mutually acceptable agreement on all the relevant issues. Once an agreement is reached, it is typically submitted to the court for approval. If the court finds the agreement to be fair and in compliance with the law, it can issue a divorce decree finalizing the divorce.

Uncontested divorces are generally less adversarial and contentious than contested divorces, as they involve less conflict and often result in a more amicable resolution. However, it's still important for each spouse to have their own attorney to ensure that their rights and interests are protected throughout the process, even in cases where there is agreement on most issues.

Seeking a Favorable Outcome for Your Divorce

An uncontested divorce may or may not be right for you and your spouse. The process can be especially advantageous if you are able to put your personal issues aside and take the least-stressful route.
