Uncontested Divorce Attorneys 

Serving Riverview, Brandon, and all of Hillsborough County, Florida

Divorce can be either uncontested or contested. If the parties can agree to the terms of their divorce, then this is both financially and emotionally beneficial to them. However, it may be difficult to sit down with your spouse and determine how you want to resolve the specifics in your situation. Primary factors you must resolve will include some or all of the following:

• If you have children, then you will have custody, visitation and child support issues to resolve.
• Distribution of marital assets and debts. (You may have questions as to what is marital and non-marital.)
• Spousal support/alimony which depends largely upon the length of your marriage and whether one spouse has a need for the support and the other has the ability to pay it.

We can help you with your uncontested divorce for a flat fee if you and your spouse know the terms of your divorce.  Contact us by email or call 813.672.1900 for an initial consultation at no charge.

If you and your husband or wife between yourselves can come to an agreement as to the terms of your divorce, then these terms can be included in a Marital Settlement Agreement. If necessary, you can attend mediation where a mediator, as well as your attorney, will assist you in coming to an agreement with your spouse. Mediators cannot give legal advice, so it is advisable to have an attorney attend the mediation with you to advise you of your legal rights, as well as to make sure that all of your issues are resolved in the agreement.

After the agreement is obtained, then an uncontested final hearing is set where the agreement is incorporated into the final judgment by reference. The hearing usually takes about ten minutes and the spouse who filed the petition usually attends as only one party is required to be there. If you and your husband or wife cannot agree on the terms, than a trial would be necessary where the judge would hear testimony and take evidence upon which he or she determines the resolution of your issues. Therefore, it is to your benefit to come to an agreement in your divorce where you and your spouse determine based upon your situation what is best for you and your children.
