An uncontested divorce is different from a contested divorce in that: (a) you and your spouse agree on all divorce-related issues (such as child custody and support, division of marital property, and spousal support); and (b) your spouse cooperates in signing the divorce papers or does not appear in court or contest the divorce after being served with a Summons and Complaint. ​If your spouse is willing to cooperate, an uncontested divorce is the quickest, friendliest, and most economical way to dissolve your marriage without going to court.

An uncontested divorce is always the best option when you and your spouse are able to negotiate and agree on key issues in your marriage, such as property division, child support, and financial support. In addition to avoiding costly legal battles, choosing an amicable uncontested divorce can reduce stress and make the dissolution of your marriage easier. If you have children, this approach can also help you and your spouse develop a healthy, cooperative relationship.

Your divorce will be considered uncontested if you and your spouse agree on the terms of your divorce, including child custody and support (if applicable), division of marital property, or spousal support, or if your spouse will not contest the divorce after receiving notice of the divorce.
