Business Description

Filing an uncontested divorce in Virginia involves several steps, including eligibility, drafting a separation agreement, preparing the Petition for Divorce, filing the documents, and paying the filing fee. Virginia has a one-year waiting period for divorces based on separation, requiring both parties to live separately and apart. To finalize the agreement, both parties must sign it and notarize it. If necessary, a court appearance may be required, and the divorce can be granted if the judge is satisfied with the agreement and the waiting period has passed. Once the court approves the divorce, it will issue a Final Decree of Divorce, which should be kept for records. If there are any changes to your contact information, the court should be notified. It is essential to seek legal advice in Virginia to ensure all legal requirements are met and your rights are protected. Consider consulting with a family law attorney to guide you through the process.
