Uncontested Divorce in Virginia Beach
How Do You Know if You Have an Uncontested Divorce?
The Law Firm of Stallings & Bischoff, P.C., work with clients who are getting divorced, whether the divorce is contested or uncontested,.
Truthfully, an uncontested divorce is pretty rare—it means both spouses agree on everything about the divorce. That seems like a nice, clean way to end a marriage, but if you couldn’t agree on enough things to stay married, then chances are, there are going to be a lot of things about which you can’t agree during the dissolution of the marriage.
Any time you have a divorce—or any legal issue, for that matter—about which the parties disagree, the matter is contested. Most of our work at Stallings & Bischoff is helping clients with contested divorce in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and surrounding areas.
Virginia Beach Contested Divorce
It’s true that a contested divorce involves a lot more than an uncontested divorce—the cost is almost definitely higher, you may find the emotional process more arduous, and the length of time you must expend on the divorce increases.
These are not reasons to avoid contesting your divorce if there are matters on which you truly disagree. Giving into your spouse will not serve your interests in the long run—and the long run is about you, as an independent person, now.
We may have to visit a few extra steps—hearings, discovery, motions, and mediation or trial—but the elements of your life that matter to you can be worked out with our attorneys:
- Division of property
- Complex division of property
- Debt management
- Child support
- Alimony
- Child custody
- Visitation or parenting time
Our divorce lawyers help you figure out how to make sure your divorce proceedings address the issues you need addressed.
