3 Signs You Can Go Through An Uncontested Divorce

When it comes to the way couples divorce, there are two main options or types they can choose from. The first is a contested divorce, and the second is an uncontested divorce. An uncontested divorce is by far the easier, faster, and more cost-effective way to go, but it is not an option for all married couples. Here are three signs it might be right for you though.

You do not have a lot of shared property

For a divorce to be uncontested, it basically means that you and your spouse have no issues with separating the things you have. For a couple to agree on everything, it often requires a situation where a couple does not have a lot of shared property. For example, if you were recently married and do not own anything together, it can be easier to divorce in an uncontested manner, as there would be nothing really to argue about. Therefore, if your situation with your spouse is very simple and does not involve a lot of shared property, this could be a great way to handle your divorce.

You agree on everything

The second sign is that you agree on everything with your spouse. There are situations where spouses may own a lot of things together, but they also agree on how to divide the things. Therefore, no matter how much you and your spouse own together, if you can agree on every last thing, you could go through an uncontested divorce. If there are any issues you are fighting about, this type of divorce is probably not going to work for you.

You get along

The other sign that must be present for an uncontested divorce is the ability to get along. How do you and your spouse handle being around each other? Can you both be kind to each other, or is the atmosphere one with great tension and bickering? To divorce in this way, you will have to get along with your spouse. This is a necessity, and this is often the thing that hinders couples from using this type of divorce.

These are three of the top signs that can indicate that a couple can successfully go through an uncontested divorce. There are other instances, though, when uncontested divorces also work. If you have questions about this type of divorce, or about your divorce in general, contact a law office that offers divorce services, such as Ritter & LeClere APC Attorneys At Law.
