Uncontested divorce describes a divorce where the couple has no disputes to be resolved by the court. In a Contested divorce, the couple cannot come to agreement on areas of their divorce and are asking the court to make these decisions for them.
Most couples are able to agree on some if not most areas of their divorce. It's not unusual for couples to have difficulty resolving some issues due to a lack of information or the inability to discuss the issues in a productive way.
Mediation is a successful process that helps couples resolve their issues with out attorneys or having decisions made by the court. In fact, divorce courts now recommend couples use mediation to resolve issues and develop a divorce agreement before they make it to court.
Your divorce agreement should take into consideration all pertinent areas of your life, such as:
* Incomes
* Business
* Division of assets and liabilities
* Spousal support
* Child custody
* Child support
* Co-parenting and visitation
Divorce mediation is a great option for couples seeking an uncontested divorce, and are willing to negotiate the areas of disagreement or dispute. Your professional mediator will work with you and your spouse to keep discussions focused and productive. With the help of your mediator you and your spouse stay in control of making your own decisions and have the best chance for a fair divorce agreement that you both can live with.
