What is an Uncontested Divorce?

An uncontested divorce is considered a legal process in which both spouses agree on all significant issues related to their divorce without needing a trial or court intervention. This amicable approach allows couples to end their marriage without the emotional and financial costs of contested divorce proceedings. You may be eligible for an uncontested divorce when you and your spouse can agree on issues like property division, child custody, spousal support, and child support.

Uncontested Divorce Requirements in Ohio

In Ohio, specific requirements must be met to qualify for an uncontested divorce:

  • Residency: At least one spouse must have been a resident of Ohio for at least six months before filing for divorce.
  • Grounds: Ohio is a no-fault divorce state, which means you do not need to prove that one spouse is at fault for the marriage's breakdown. It is enough to state that the marriage is irretrievably broken, and there is no hope of reconciliation.
  • Agreement: Both parties must agree on all essential elements of the divorce, including property division, spousal support, child custody, and child support. A clear and comprehensive separation agreement is crucial.
  • Financial Disclosure: Both spouses must provide full financial disclosure to ensure transparency in property division and financial matters.
  • Parenting Plan: If children are involved, a parenting plan outlining custody, visitation, and child support arrangements must be established.
  • Waiver of Service: In uncontested divorces, the spouse filing for divorce (the petitioner) can ask the court to waive the service of process, saving time and resources.
  • Marital Settlement Agreement: A marital settlement agreement is a key component of an uncontested divorce. It outlines the division of assets, debts, and spousal support. Having a well-drafted agreement is crucial to a successful uncontested divorce.

    “Nina is hands down the best Attorney!”
    I would recommend Nina to anyone going through a divorce. Although I did not follow through with my divorce I felt 100% comfortable that Nina would ensure my best interest was most important to her. Nina was easy to talk to and well educated on what she does. She definitely knows the ends and outs on what you need to do and what will take place before it does. Even here assistant Beth was very friendly to work with. I would say Nina is prompt, detail oriented, patient, informative, and kind. I know that I can and will call on her if I need her in the future.
