What is a Non-Contested Divorce?

A non-contested divorce is a divorce where both spouses agree on all major issues, such as property division, spousal support (alimony), and child custody (if applicable). Since there are no disagreements, the process is usually faster and more straightforward.

Key Differences Between Contested and Non-Contested Divorce

  • Contested Divorce: In a contested divorce, the spouses cannot agree on one or more issues. This often leads to a court trial where a judge makes the final decisions.
  • Non-Contested Divorce: In a non-contested divorce, both parties have already agreed on how to divide assets, handle custody (if applicable), and settle any other issues. There is no need for a trial, which saves time and money.

A non-contested divorce is often the fastest and least expensive option for couples who are able to work together to resolve their issues.

Benefits of a Non-Contested Divorce

Faster Resolution

  • Non-contested divorces typically take between two to six months to finalize.
  • Since both parties agree on the terms, there are fewer delays and no need for a lengthy trial.

Lower Costs

  • Non-contested divorces involve reduced attorney fees and court costs because there’s no need for extensive litigation.
  • A typical non-contested attorney fee is just $1,000, making it an affordable option for many couples.

Less Emotional Stress

  • Without a prolonged battle in court, there’s less emotional strain on both parties.
  • The process is less likely to escalate into a contentious situation, allowing for a smoother transition into life after divorce.

Greater Control

  • Both parties have more control over the terms of their divorce. You and your spouse can work out an agreement that works for both of you, rather than leaving decisions up to a judge.
  • This can lead to a fairer outcome for both parties, as they have the freedom to negotiate.

Who Qualifies for a Non-Contested Divorce?

Not every couple is eligible for a non-contested divorce. To qualify for this simplified process, both spouses must agree on all of the following:

  • Property Division: There must be no disputes over how to divide assets or debts.
  • Custody and Parenting Plans (if children are involved): Both parents must agree on custody arrangements and visitation schedules.
  • Spousal Support (Alimony): If alimony is an issue, both parties must agree on the terms.

If you meet these criteria, you may qualify for the $1,000 non-contested fee. However, situations that may disqualify you from a non-contested divorce include:

  • Contested Custody: If there are disagreements over child custody or visitation.
  • Complex Financial Issues: If there are significant assets or debts that need complex division.
  • Domestic Violence or Abuse: If either spouse feels unsafe or there are allegations of abuse, the divorce may need to be contested for protection.
