An uncontested divorce is one in which the parties agree in a settlement agreement (a contract between the divorcing parties) on the distribution of their assets, division of their debts, custody and visitation terms for any children, and any spousal and/or child support terms. Once an agreement in writing has been reached, then the parties typically submit the agreement to the court for incorporation and enforcement in a divorce order. Uncontested divorces are much less expensive than full blown litigation.
