uncontested divorce
Agreed marital dissolution
An uncontested divorce is one where both spouses agree on all major terms—division of property, child custody, support payments—without requiring a judge to decide disputed issues.
These divorces proceed faster and cost less than contested ones: They filed for an uncontested divorce and finalized it in three months.
