Uncontested Divorce
In an uncontested divorce, the spouses must be in complete agreement on every aspect of their divorce when they file their paperwork with the state. They must determine the division of their assets, the custody, support, and visitation schedule for their children, spousal support, and more. In short marriages with small assets and debts and no children, the spouses may be able to work out these details on their own. However, in the majority of cases, it’s a better idea to seek some professional help.
Couples who file an uncontested divorce might negotiate their issues via the collaborative divorce process, or through divorce mediation. Both of these methods have the same goal – to keep the divorce negotiations out of court.
