Frequently Asked Divorce Questions


What is an uncontested divorce?

In an uncontested divorce, both spouses agree on everything pertaining to dissolution of the marriage. This includes support or alimony, child custody, child visitations, child support, division of marital assets, and division of marital debt. A divorce can also be uncontested if your spouse doesn’t respond to the court paperwork.

An uncontested divorce is time-consuming and usually costly. In most cases you’ll need to retain a divorce attorney if your spouse doesn’t agree on major issues such as child support, custody, and visitations. It’s highly unlikely your spouse will agree to an uncontested divorce if your marital assets are substantial.


What is a contested divorce?

In a contested divorce, both spouses do not agree on at least one of the issues involved in dissolving the marriage. This could be child support, alimony, division of marital assets, or just about anything. A divorce can also be contested simply because one spouse wants to stay together and is willing to let the court decide the fate of the marriage.

The most common reasons for a contested divorce are child support, child custody, alimony, and division of marital assets. Disagreeing on these matters increases stress, requires more court hearings, and often cranks up the attorney fees. If both spouses are willing to participate in mediation, a neutral mediator can be assigned to resolve the issues in dispute. If both parties agree with the proposals created by the mediator, the judge will normally accept the proposals and finalize the divorce.

Contested divorces are where divorce lawyers make most of their money. Retainer fees for a contested divorce can range from a few thousand to several hundred thousand dollars. Once both parties to the divorce “lawyer up”, the case can drag on for months, if not years.
