While divorce can be a tough and challenging process, when you and your spouse or partner are both ready to move on, the process can be smoother. Even when your divorce is uncontested, it is important to have a legal professional by your side who can ensure that your interest and rights are safeguarded and that your spouse does not try to take advantage of you.
When a couple is in agreement on the major issues of a divorce and willing to resolve issues outside of the court, it is considered uncontested. However, no divorce can be seen as fully uncontested. Though your divorce may be amicable and peaceful, there are bound to be some issues that you and your spouse/partner differ on. This is why having a Denver divorce lawyer behind you can be an invaluable asset. Peek Vasquez, LLC (former Peek Family Law, LLC) can provide the insight and counsel you need for your case!
What happens in an uncontested divorce? Unlike a contested divorce, your case will be handled outside of the court without any interference from a judge. First, you will need to form a written agreement that states both you and your spouse are ready to end your marriage/partnership.
This agreement should detail the following issues:
- Property and debt division
- Alimony (if necessary)
- Child custody and visitation rights
- All other matters regarding your divorce
Once you have come up with an agreement and had your Denver divorce attorney review it, you will need to fill out a variety of paperwork and legal forms with the court. Once the judge has reviewed your filed affidavit, the will determine whether or not to issue a “decree of dissolution of marriage” that officially divorces you and your spouse.
We know that this can be an overwhelming process, which is why we are here to help. Our firm can handle this legal burden for you, allowing you to focus your attention on your family during this transition. Contact us today if you are ready to discuss your divorce case!
