Uncontested Divorce

By Mathur Law Offices   Nov. 1, 2010 1:55p

When a marriage ends, often it is rife with animosity and decisions are made by feelings instead of through rational thinking. However, many divorces end with spouses on friendly terms and are able to cooperate and act amicably about the terms of their divorce. In the event of an uncontested divorce there are two options that can best serve a divorcing couple's needs. By utilizing either a mediator or merely using a Dallas uncontested divorce lawyer, many divorce processes are ended quickly, and result in less stress and financial burden for both parties.

While a divorce attorney can only represent one client, unless they are mediating for both clients in some cases a husband and wife may not feel the need for representation by multiple attorneys because the terms have been agreed to and the result is uncontested by either party.

To complete the process a petition, waiver and then the final divorce decree must all be signed when each is ready. In Texas there are certain guidelines including a 60-day waiting period between the petition and the signing of the divorce decree. The waiver serves as a notice that the other party does not need to be served for legal proceedings and acknowledges the terms of the divorce.
