In Geogria Uncontest Divorce Is Much Less Traumatic Than A Protracted Court Battle

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.

Divorcing couples often do not realize just how humiliating, expensive and traumatic contested separations can be. Such cases are heard in open court and the records can be published and broadcast. Each party will have to hire his or her own lawyer, often at tremendous cost. Protracted cases often erode the joint estate of the separating couple to the extent that little remains to fight about.

Dissolving a marriage can be an extremely complicated affair. There are numerous issues involved, such as the division of assets and liabilities, custody matters, maintenance payments and if there is a prenuptial agreement it can get even more complicated. In uncontested cases couples can discuss all the various issues, often with the help of a lawyer, and come to an amicable agreement.

In some cases a couple simply cannot agree on an important issues such as custody matters or the division of assets.

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.

Many people lament the fact that marriage is no longer a sacred institution and that the until death do us part clause have become redundant. The fact is that numerous marriages break up. If such break downs of a marriage can be managed in a civilized manner, at least all the parties concerned will experience less trauma and stress.
