What Is An Uncontested Divorce?

Uncontested divorce offers a quicker, less expensive resolution to marital dissolution for couples who can fully agree on the terms. Here is a brief overview of the process and the benefits of using an uncontested divorce attorney:

  • In an uncontested divorce, a couple agrees on all issues of their divorce. They relay their agreement to the uncontested divorce attorney who prepares the necessary forms which the parties sign in the presence of a notary public. The documents are then filed with the court.
  • The court receives the documents. Then the judge signs the Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage. This process generally does not require a court appearance when the parties utilize the services of an uncontested divorce attorney.

The main benefits of this process are as follows:

  • Speed: An uncontested settlement can be filed within a couple of weeks and approved by the court in as little as 30 days from date of filing, far less than the potential years-long length of a contested divorce.
  • Cost: Couples who agree on all terms without needing to hire their own attorneys to fight it out save more money compared to those hiring lawyers for contested divorce.
  • Flexibility: An uncontested divorce attorney can be helpful for arranging alternate types of service, such as publishing an advertisement in a newspaper for a default hearing when you cannot locate the other party.
