An uncontested divorce means both spouses agree on the key issues, like custody, support, and dividing property and debts. When there’s a full agreement, the process is usually simpler and can move faster than a contested case.
A contested divorce means one or more issues are still disputed, such as custody, child support, alimony, or property division. Many contested cases still resolve through negotiation or mediation before trial.
A high net worth divorce usually involves significant assets, often $1 million or more, and can include complex issues like business interests, real estate, taxes, and support calculations. These cases may require outside professionals such as appraisers or financial experts to value assets accurately.
Legal custody is the right to make major decisions for a child, like school, medical care, and religious upbringing. Physical custody refers to where the child lives day to day and what the parenting time schedule looks like.
A custody order can sometimes be changed when there has been a significant change in circumstances that affects the child’s wellbeing or the parenting schedule. Modifications are fact-specific, so it helps to speak with a lawyer before taking action.
Legitimation is a legal process that can allow a father to seek enforceable parental rights when the parents were not married. It often goes hand-in-hand with a custody and parenting plan.
Some divorces require court hearings, especially if there are disputes over custody, support, or property. In uncontested cases where both spouses agree, the process is often simpler and may require little or limited time in court, depending on the county and the case.
