Uncontested Divorce
Yes, we hear all too often about couples who battle it out endlessly for a divorce that is anything but amicable.
But is that really the norm?
Well, no. Rather, many couples opt for an amicable divorce where terms of the divorce are not contested by either party – what is referred to as an uncontested divorce lawyer.
In such a case, both parties are seeking a quick and easy solution to parting ways between them amicably, perhaps on good terms, so that they can move on with their respective lives as swiftly as possible. Often times we see that one or both parties are already in other relationships to the extent that they would like their existing marriage to be dissolved as speedily as possible so as to allow them a fresh new lease of life at the earliest.
So does that mean a divorce attorney is not required?
No, that is not necessarily true. Even when parties are looking to annul a marriage amicably between them, the terms of the divorce will have to be drafted out carefully…as a party to the whole agreement, you do not want to find yourself shortchanged after what you thought was an amicable settlement.
Also, remember that even in uncontested divorce cases, things can still go to court which means you will need an attorney to defend your case.
Therefore the need for a capable attorney like Canor Pato – who has handled both uncontested as well as bitterly fought out divorce cases with equal acumen, really cannot be stressed upon enough.
Situations where uncontested divorces are sought and their advantages
There are many situations where uncontested divorces are sought; in essence, the most common situation is one where both parties do not really have much, perhaps anything to argue over.
For instance, if things are very clearly spelled out in the prenuptial agreement, in case of a divorce, it is simply about following the terms of the agreement. As long as both parties do so without exception, there will be no reasons for contentions to arise on both sides!
To give you some instances, if division of property is clearly spelled out; if child custody / time-sharing has been agreed upon amicably; and possibly there is no liability on either party on the other for child or spousal support (or if so, then things have been worked out fair and square to the agreement of both parties), then there is really no reason to go ahead and contest the divorce.
Moreover, as far as advantages go to an uncontested divorce they are plentiful:
- The whole process is speedy with couples having the leeway to go ahead with their new lives as quickly as possible.
- There are no long drawn legal battles to be fought.
- On an emotional level, an uncontested divorce proves to be a virtual Godsend!
- There is every possibility of not having to go to court on the case at all.
So as you can see, an uncontested divorce attorney offers so many different advantages, which is why we find so many couples opting for the same.
