Uncontested Divorce |
What is it?
An uncontested divorce is one where both parties mutually agree on the terms of the divorce.
The statutes in some states permit only one party to petition for a
no-fault divorce, where a divorce is initiated based on no fault by
either party and the party that files simply wants to end the marriage.
In states where a no fault divorce is not permitted, reasons for the
divorce, such as adultery or abusiveness, must be stated when filing
the petition.
In all divorce matters, even uncontested divorces, it is recommended
that you seek professional legal assistance to protect your interests.
A lawyer who has experience in this area of law can give legal advice
that will assist you with the matter and will ensure that the judicial
process is properly followed. |
