Worcester Uncontested Divorce Lawyers
Serving Worcester, Middlesex and Hampden Counties
When both spouses agree on the major issues, an uncontested divorce offers a faster, less expensive, and less stressful path forward. Even so, the separation agreement you sign becomes a binding legal document, so it is worth having an attorney review it before you finalize anything.
At Rudolf, Griffis, Ruggieri & Murray, we help clients prepare accurate, complete agreements that hold up over time, so nothing gets overlooked in the interest of moving quickly.
What Makes A Divorce Uncontested
- Both spouses agree on property division.
- Both spouses agree on child custody and parenting time, if applicable.
- Both spouses agree on child support and alimony, if applicable.
- A written separation agreement is signed by both parties.
- The agreement is submitted to the court for review and approval.
Why Review Your Agreement With An Attorney
Agreeing on the major issues does not mean the agreement itself is airtight. We regularly see separation agreements that leave out important details, like how future medical or education costs will be split, or that use language that creates confusion down the road.
A short attorney review before you sign can prevent a much larger, more expensive dispute later.
