Local Law Firms Home > Divorce Family Law Overview > Uncontested Divorce Not every divorce needs to be a lengthy, drawn-out conflict. In many situations, both spouses are able to come to agreements on all of the issues by themselves and just need the legal documents to officially finalize the divorce. When this is the case, most of the time, the type of divorce that makes the most sense is an uncontested divorce. Just like the name suggests, neither party contests to any of the many factors or issues that arise in a divorce. Although this is often the least complicated type of divorce, it is still necessary to involve a lawyer who can ensure that everything runs smoothly.

During an uncontested divorce, it is not unusual for only one spouse to hire an attorney, who then prepares the necessary paperwork, including the preparation and filing of a divorce petition, proposed divorce decree and marital termination agreement. However, it is vital to realize that an attorney cannot represent both sides in a divorce. If you hire one of our divorce lawyers, we will represent you only.
