Why Contest a Divorce?

Reasons to Get a Contested Divorce
A contested divorce can allow you to move on with your life instead of having to wait for your spouse to come around, especially if they refuse to sign the divorce papers. Sometimes, the spouse and/or the children are the victims of domestic violence.

Why would a divorce be contested?

A contested divorce means when the spouses disagree on some or all of the issues within the divorce. Most commonly, these disagreements include child and spousal support, division of the financial gains of the marriage, and child visitation schedules.

Should I contest a divorce?

Ideally, you do not want a contested divorce. California law requires everyone go through the courts to complete their divorce, but it's much simpler when everyone gets along and agrees to the terms of the divorce. You must pay all fees if you decide to hire a lawyer.
