A Geogria Uncontest Divorce Is Easier For Everyone Involved

By Martha Butler


Social and religious experts agree that healthy families remain the most important component of healthy societies. Sadly, more and more marriages fall apart and during the past few decades the number of single parent families have rocketed. Ending an intimate relationship is never easy, especially if there are children involved. There are always a lot of emotions involved and in many cases the final separation is acrimonious. With a Geogria uncontest divorce couples can at least separate in a civilized manner.

Contested separations can be extremely messy and in most cases there are no winners. Each partner will have to hire a lawyer to represent them. This can be extremely expensive. The court records are open for public scrutiny and couples in a contested separation can therefore not expect any degree of privacy. Contested cases are also often typified by aggressive behaviour and many negative emotions.

A marriage is a very special type of legal union that is governed by a number of rather complex laws. Before it can be dissolved, decisions need to be made on a great number of issues. Couples need to decide upon the division of liabilities and assets. Matters such as custody and visitation rights need to be agreed upon. Both partners have certain legal rights and in many cases prenuptial agreements complicate matters even further.

Even if a couple parts ways in the friendliest manner possible, it is still vital to gain advice from a professional such as a lawyer or licensed counsellor. All parties, including the children have certain rights and those rights must be respected and honoured. A lawyer can help couples to reach agreements that are both legal and fair. It is best to hire someone experienced in such matters and that has a reputation for discretion.

Unfortunately, an amicable dissolving of a marriage is not always possible. In instances where the separation is caused by physical, emotional and sexual abuse, or where one partner simply refuses to cooperate there may be no other option other than to sue for a contested divorce in open court. In some cases a couple simply cannot agree on an important issues such as custody matters or the division of assets.

Reasonable couples will know that any savings they achieve during the process of separating will be savings that they will share. This requires a spirit of cooperation from both partners. It therefore makes sense to try and reach a private agreement on most major issues before involving a professional facilitator that will turn those agreements into a contract that can be made an order of the court.

Uncontested separations offer many advantages when compared to contested separations. It is private because the agreement reached by the couple is presented to a judge in his chambers and the made an order of the court. The partners involved do not even have to appear in court. It is also much cheaper, with only one lawyer involved.

It is sad when marriages fall apart and statistics show that the divorce rate rises every year. However, if a marriage cannot be saved, the next best thing is to do whatever possible to make the separation as civilized as possible. In this way fewer negative emotions come into play and children are not as badly affected as they would be with a contested case.
