The simplest and least expensive method of dissolution is the Uncontested Dissolution/Divorce. An Uncontested Dissolution/Divorce occurs when both spouses are able to agree on the terms or dissolution, or the marriage community has no children, assets or debts available for division. In the case of an uncontested divorce, our office will prepare a Marriage Settlement Agreement (MSA) in accordance with your agreement and file it in the appropriate court. Your dissolution may be completed and your marriage terminated six months following the filing of the Petition.
The most common method of dissolution is the Mediated or Negotiated Settlement. Through mediation or a negotiated settlement all issues regarding Child Custody, Support, and Division of Assets and Debts will be agreed upon amicably outside of court and we will prepare and file a Marriage Settlement Agreement (MSA) in accordance with your agreement.
Litigated or Contested Dissolution/Divorce. Sometimes settlement is not a possibility and the matter must be brought to court for resolution of the issues of child custody, support, and the division of assets and debts. Litigated divorces are extremely emotional and complex and each decision or finding by the judge or commissioner may have a monumental impact on your future and that of your children's. It is imperative in the case of a litigated or contested dissolution/divorce for you to have an experienced and skillful attorney to develop and execute a strategic game plan to ensure a successful resolution.
