To qualify for a simple, non-contested divorce, the divorcing couple must agree to all terms, including financial, child custody and property division matters. Following an interview with both you and your spouse, in which both parties agree to terms, a marital settlement agreement would be signed.

In an uncontested divorce, your attorney will take the following steps on your behalf:

• Draft a petition for dissolution of your marriage
• Draft a marital settlement agreement and joint parenting agreement when appropriate
• Draft any quit claim deeds for arrangement of marital property
• Draft a letter to prepare you for your court appearance where the court would enter a judgment for divorce

Even in the case of a non-contested divorce, it is important that both you and your spouse be represented by separate attorneys, to assure a fair and equitable divorce settlement. Divorce is always a difficult process; if you and your spouse can settle important issues amicably before going to court, it will be a lot easier on the entire family. Our lawyers can help you and your spouse reach the terms to reach a non-contested divorce.

Going through a divorce is one of the most painful experiences a person can experience. You need a compassionate and experienced divorce lawyer working with you to protect your rights and establish fair and equitable child and spousal monetary support.
