A
divorce, also called marriage dissolution,
is the process of legally ending a marriage. There
are two types of divorces; an uncontested divorce
and a contested divorce.
In an
uncontested divorce, the spouses are able to
reasonably agree upon all issues relating to the
termination of a marriage, typically through
family law mediation.
Uncontested divorces are more likely to be conducted
when children are not an issue in the divorce.
While some are
able to accomplish an uncontested divorce, due to
the nature of a divorce (marriage dissolution), the
majority of divorces are contested.
