Uncontested Divorces
What is an Uncontested Divorce?
Is when the spouses reach a consensus on all significant issues, such as property distribution, child custody, alimony, and any other pertinent concerns. This consensual agreement speeds up and lowers the cost of the divorce process by allowing the other party to proceed without the necessity for a drawn-out and acrimonious court battle.
In the State of New Jersey, anyone can file a petition for Divorce without being assisted by Family Lawyer. The Superior Court, Family Division provides information and guidance on how to file your claim for divorce. For many applicants however, these instructions may appear confusing and overwhelming, but I can help them because I understand how this petitions are done.
How Long It Takes to Get Divorced?
Well this Depends on Your Spouse. Yes! unfortunately getting the consent from the other spouse (a requirement in New Jersey) can take longer than expected in some cases; fortunately the New Jersey Court offers several ways to do so.
Divorce with minor children When children are involved, the family judges require additional steps to ensure that the rights and wellbeing of the minors are met such as: Child Support, Visitation, Health Insurance among others. In many Uncontested Divorces, a MSA may satisfy the Family Judge.
I Got Married In My Country, Can File My Divorce Here?
YES! definetly yes. Anyone who has been living in the State of New Jersey for at least one year should file for divorce in New Jersey regardless of where the other party (spouse) lives, and if both parties are living in the U.S I reccomend to do it here, specially if the new divorcee wishes to remarry and file a immigration petition.
What Happens If My Spouse Doesn’t Want To Sign The Divorce?
In the State of New Jersey the signature of the other spouse (party) is not required, however; the court mandates that the other party must be properly notified or the divorce may not be granted. On Uncontested Divorces, if the other party signs it, it will make the process go faster.
“Keep in mind that Divorces with no children or properties are granted faster”.
