The Benefits of Uncontested Divorce

Long Island Divorce Attorney

While an uncontested divorce is conducted through the court system in some aspects as necessary, this type of divorce can be much less emotionally taxing than full-blown divorce litigation. Each Long Island divorce lawyer at Meyers Law Group, PC has the commitment and compassion to help the client through any family law case. We may be able to help you with your uncontested divorce case by divorce mediation. A trained mediator at our Long Island family law firm makes sure to listen to the client in order to strategize the best possible outcome given the circumstances.

Do we need an attorney?

Even though a uncontested divorce may be more expedient since your spouse does not oppose the divorce, there are still many aspects of such a case that should be carefully considered. The process of equity distribution (distribution of marital property) as well as alimony and maintenance (spousal support) agreements must be arranged. If there are children involved then child custody, visitation schedules and child support must be agreed upon.

Even out of court, all these factors of a divorce can be overwhelming. A knowledgeable attorney can ensure that the couple understands these factors of their divorce proceedings and has all the information needed to make the best decision for their situation. While an uncontested divorce may be a much more amicable divorce proceeding, the resultant agreements are just as legally binding and official as any divorce litigation. This is why it is imperative that anyone going through an uncontested divorce has the competent help of a member of our trusted legal team.
