If considering dissolving your marriage, different types of divorce could be considered. What you choose depends on your specific situation, so review available options after understanding various types of divorce. Select the least stressful option that provides the quickest resolution, after carefully considering your goals and needs carefully and consult legal professionals to ensure a divorce with the best possible outcome for you. The best way forward is only possible with additional knowledge, and after evaluating facts before choosing the type of divorce to file for. We analyse four traditional types of divorce, but options vary depending on where you live and your specific situation and a trusted family law attorney could assist you in deciding the best course of action, while divorcing.

UNCONTESTED

An uncontested divorce is a swift and simple option which depends on whether you and your spouse agree on matters relating to your separation. This type of divorce can be finalised in only 31 days after the initial filing, but your spouse and you must be in complete agreement on everything, to use this type of divorce, including contentious issues of child support, custody, property division, and financial matters.

CONTESTED

A contested divorce is not straightforward, as there are issues on which you and your spouse are unable to agree. Such a divorce takes much more time to finalise, and courts may intervene to make certain decisions for you in financial issues and issues involving children are major areas where divorcing spouses generally  disagree.

COLLABORATION

In any collaborative divorce, both spouses are in agreement about not wanting to go to court. Such a divorce is handled step-wise, with financial professionals advising on monetary decisions, therapists recommending on the best interests of children, etc. Meetings and voluntary disclosures constitute a major part of handling a divorce this way, so as to finalise an agreement in all areas. Once the agreement is given to the court, the divorce settlement is processed and finalised.

ARBITRATION

In any divorce involving arbitration, spouses agree to let arbitrators decide on areas where they do not agree. The arbitrator’s decision is binding on both parties and becomes the final agreement enabling the divorce to be processed. This is faster than going to court and less costly, besides keeping their documents private. An out of a court proceeding could benefit spouses, especially if involved in a high-asset divorce.

WHY EACH DIVORCE IS DIFFERENT AND PROCESSES FOR EACH

Divorces are different as people are different and want different things. Sometimes two people simply realise that their marriage is not working and basically end it with no hard feelings. There are cases where two people fight for years over issues, based on principles involved. Most divorces fall somewhere between both extremes. With divorces available, spouses can choose what is right for their situation. While processes for each divorce are different based on state requirements, all divorces begin with a helpful legal professional.  A legal professional eases the process of divorce by making it less stressful, less complex, and less confusing for spouses by handling paperwork, prepare spouses for arbitration, find collaboration professionals, and appear in Court when required. All divorce processes are generally difficult, but the right attorney enables the process to move through as efficiently and seamlessly as is possible.
