Uncontested Divorce
An uncontested divorce is the simplest form of divorce. In an uncontested divorce, both people not only agree to get divorced, but they also agree on all of the issues of their divorce, such as:
- A property settlement that fairly divides marital assets and debts
- Whether one of the spouses will receive spousal maintenance, in what amount and for how long
- Who will have custody of children and what kind of custody they will have (joint custody or sole custody)
- How much visitation the other parent will have, and when
- How much child support a parent will receive
If there are any issues of disagreement, the divorce is a “contested” divorce which is common at the beginning, but most people CAN arrive at a mutually agreeable solution after negotiations or divorce mediation.
