Managing An Uncontested Divorce
Celebrity divorces always seem to be high-drama affairs, making it easy to believe that this is the only way marriages end. However, in real life, many couples prefer an uncontested divorce in which both parties mutually agree on the dissolution of the marriage and work to secure an amicable settlement. An uncontested divorce is typically easier on the children and finances. If you do not go to court, then the process can be much more private. For those getting a divorce, it is reasonable to first consider an uncontested divorce.
Benefits Of An Uncontested Divorce
Uncontested divorce is one of the most popular ways of dissolving a marriage because:
- It paves the way for a quick settlement
- It is more cost-efficient
- It (mostly) does away with the need for court hearings
- It keeps family matters private
- It avoids the prolonged agony of a contested divorce
- It keeps the peace within the family, especially for any children involved
As a family law attorney invested in your well-being, I will advise an uncontested divorce whenever feasible. My mission is to protect your peace.
How To Prepare For An Uncontested Divorce
To facilitate efficient proceedings, each of the parties must do the following:
Agree on the contents of the divorce settlement, including property and debt division, child custody, child support and alimony, among others
Find a qualified family law attorney
Prepare documents – including property titles, records of assets and liabilities, and prenuptial or postnuptial agreements – that might be necessary when detailing the contents of the final agreement
A Walk-Through Of The Divorce Proceedings
Once the supporting documents and the final agreements are prepared, the spouses can then go to an attorney and file for divorce in court. They can do this either jointly or solely. The court will then issue papers informing all parties involved about the application. If child custody is part of the divorce proceedings, the judge will have to sign the custody papers. If no contest is raised on the application, the papers can be filed, and then the divorce orders and certificate of divorce will be issued.
Will We Both Need Attorneys?
In an uncontested divorce, both spouses do not need to have an attorney, but it is highly recommended that they do so. An attorney can only legally represent one person in a divorce.
