Understanding Types Of Divorce Resolution Pathways
There are several issues that need to be resolved either privately between the spouses or in court before a divorce can be finalized. Such issues include:
- Asset division
- Debt division
- Business valuation
- High net worth assets
- Alimony
- Custody
- Child support
- Modifications
- And more!
If you and your spouse can agree on the outcomes of each of these issues, congratulations! With the two of you in agreement, you can have an uncontested divorce, meaning that your divorce can be settled without having to go to court. This type of divorce is typically the quicker and less expensive option. People tend to like this type of divorce because it is easier, and it allows you to maintain some privacy by keeping your issues out of court.
On the other hand, if you and your spouse cannot or will not agree on the terms of your divorce, you will have a contested divorce going forward. Contested divorces are settled in court with the help of a judge. Though this might seem like the more stressful avenue for divorce since it is typically longer, more combative, and more expensive, it can be a worthwhile fight if it means you can reach terms that are more acceptable to you.
How Our Tyrone Divorce Lawyers Can Help
Whether you are seeking uncontested or contested divorce, our Tyrone divorce lawyers can help you take care of the specifics. In an uncontested divorce, we can help you file your paperwork, communicate with the court and your spouse’s legal team, and meet other protocols.
If you are facing a contested divorce, on the other hand, we can fight for you ferociously to get the settlement you deserve. For example, you can seek fault-based divorce if you feel that your marriage has broken down because of the wrongdoing of your spouse.
Though Georgia is a no-fault divorce state, you must submit one from among thirteen legally verified grounds for divorce. The thirteenth reason of these does not seek to place blame, so it is the most often cited. Others, however, such as those that allege abuse, adultery, abandonment, addiction, and more can be communicated in court in order to seek a settlement that is more fair to you and potentially redresses any hardship you have endured at the hands of your spouse.
Whatever path you determine is best, the lawyers of Lunn Law will help you pursue the settlement that aligns with your best interest.
