Uncontested Divorce

The end of a marriage does not necessarily mean an ugly divorce will occur. In fact, many divorce cases settle without ever having to appear in court. While avoiding a court trial is always a positive, and while some uncontested divorces can be extremely simple, oftentimes people will still need the help of a family law attorney to make sure things are done correctly. In a Florida divorce case in which neither spouse is challenging the divorce and in which there is an agreement on every potential issue, the divorce is often labeled “uncontested”. Regardless of your case being uncontested, there are still forms to fill out, financial disclosures to be made, and an agreement to be reached. The Tampa area divorce attorneys at the Family Law Advocates have years of experience helping men and women through all aspects of divorce, including those that are uncontested. Our firm believes that settling any case is generally going to be a better option than letting a judge make decisions affecting your future. Uncontested divorces tend to not only be less acrimonious, but typically are far less expensive than when spouses fight. If you’re interested in exploring your settlement options, or perhaps already have the terms of your divorce agreed to, give us a call.

The simplest of divorce cases, such as those with no assets and no children, can be handled very quickly, with minimal legal paperwork to file. Cases with assets, children, or potential support issues can still go relatively smoothly, so long as the parties agree on all issues, including:

• Marital Asset and Liability Division
• Alimony
• Child Custody and a Parenting Plan
• Child Support

If you and your spouse are able to agree on the aforementioned aspects of your divorce case, you will be able to avoid a great degree of the emotional and financial toll that can come with litigation. At the Family Law Advocates, we provide a full array of divorce services ranging from full legal representation to limited drafting services, to advice and consultation for those who wish to handle their case fully on their own.

In cases with assets or children, financial disclose will still need to be done and you always want to make sure your settlement agreement and parenting plan are well written, concise, and detailed. You also want to make sure your agreements are both fair to you and in your children’s best interest. Having an attorney assist you with your uncontested divorce can provide you with the comfort of knowing things are done properly.

Your divorce attorney will review all aspects of the case, including the incomes, assets, debts, and expenses of both parties, and to make sure your financial settlement agreement is accurate and in compliance with Florida law. If applicable, your attorney will make sure your parenting plan and child support terms are correctly set down on paper. In any case, contested or not, the goal is that the end product of well written-orders will allow you to move on with your life.
