Filing for Divorce: Which Approach Is Best?

Our divorce law firm is proud to help people from all walks of life and all types of backgrounds build a better future for themselves and their loved ones. And if takes a court battle to protect their well-being or the well-being of their children, then we are prepared to launch a vigorous defense of their rights and futures. Normally speaking, however, protecting our client’s best interests involves avoiding a contested divorce whenever possible.

Contested Divorce in Virginia

Why is that? In a contested divorce, both parties cannot agree on at least one or perhaps all the major components of a divorce arrangement, from spousal support and property division to child custody and support. If one spouse does not even want to file for a divorce, then this too would involve the other spouse filing a contested divorce. One of the consequences of pursuing a contested divorce is that you will have to wait for court date after court date to continue with all the hearings required. Additional disputes will only drag this process out further, costing everyone a great deal of time and money. If you find yourself in this situation, our skilled divorce lawyer is well-prepared to advocate for your rights, all while working to defuse tension and keep the process moving as efficiently as possible.

Uncontested Divorce in Virginia

If a divorce is uncontested, then this means that spouses find agreement on most aspects of their divorce and are willing to amicably negotiate terms outside of court. While a judge will still need to approve the divorce agreement in court, the process leading up to that can happen apart from a court’s busy schedule, proceeding on your terms. An uncontested divorce often should not take much longer than a couple of months. To make sure that your best interests are protected, that your agreement will be legally binding, and to keep the negotiations from getting contested, it is best to talk to a lawyer about your divorce as soon as possible.

Get Trusted Legal Guidance for Each Step of the Divorce Process

In either a contested or uncontested case, if you are filing for a no-fault divorce, then before you can file your divorce papers, you and your spouse must live apart from one another for a set period of time. The required separation is for at least six months if you do not have children who are minors, while the requirement is a full year if you do have children.
