Uncontested Divorce

Contested Divorce
A contested divorce may involve disagreements over finances, parenting time, or property. Our firm provides steady, strategic representation, helping you navigate negotiations, hearings, and court appearances with confidence.
High-Asset Divorce

Frequently Asked Questions
To file for divorce in Oklahoma, one spouse must have lived in the state for at least six months and in the filing county for 30 days. The process starts by filing a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage in the district court. After filing, your spouse must be formally served with the petition and given time to respond. From there, the court can address property division, custody, support, and other matters as needed.
Yes, if both spouses agree on all terms, such as property division, child custody, and support, the case can often be completed without a formal court appearance. This is known as an uncontested divorce. However, at least one party typically must appear briefly before a judge to finalize the decree.
An uncontested divorce in Oklahoma can be finalized in as little as 10 days if there are no minor children. If children are involved, the state requires a 90-day waiting period before the divorce can be finalized, though judges may shorten this for good cause.
The fastest path to divorce is through an uncontested agreement. This means both spouses must agree on all terms, including property, debt, custody, and support, before filing. Working with an attorney can help prepare and file all necessary paperwork correctly the first time, avoiding costly delays.
Yes. Oklahoma allows no-fault divorces on the grounds of incompatibility. This means neither spouse needs to prove wrongdoing, such as adultery or abandonment, to obtain a divorce. However, fault-based grounds are still available if one party wishes to pursue them.
Choosing divorce is a deeply personal decision. You might consider it if there’s a breakdown of trust, ongoing conflict, or irreconcilable differences that can’t be resolved. Before filing, it’s wise to discuss your situation with a family law attorney who can help you understand your rights, possible outcomes, and whether other options, such as separation or mediation, might be appropriate.
