Uncontested Divorce
Why Choose an Uncontested Divorce?
An uncontested divorce means both spouses agree on all major issues, such as property division, child custody (if applicable), and spousal support. By choosing this route, you benefit from:
- Lower Costs – Avoid expensive litigation and hourly attorney fees.
- Faster Process – Finalize your divorce in weeks instead of months or years.
- Less Stress – Skip court battles and reduce emotional strain.
- More Control – Keep your decisions in your hands, not a judge’s.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Uncontested Divorces
What qualifies as an uncontested divorce?
An uncontested divorce means both spouses agree on all major terms, including asset division, debts, child custody, and support (if applicable). If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, I can help determine if an uncontested divorce is possible.
What happens if we start uncontested but later disagree?
If a dispute arises that prevents the case from proceeding as an uncontested divorce, the matter will become contested. At that point, we will continue under my hourly billing rate.
Can you represent both my spouse and me?
No. I can only represent one spouse in the divorce, but I often meet with both parties (sometimes separately) to help facilitate the process. My role is to guide the represented spouse while ensuring all required documents are properly prepared and filed.
How long does an uncontested divorce take?
Every case is different, but an uncontested divorce typically takes a few short weeks, depending on court processing times and state requirements.
What if my spouse lives in another state?
As long as at least one spouse meets the residency requirements for filing in Illinois, an uncontested divorce can still proceed.
