Memphis Contested Divorce and Uncontested Divorce

Uncontested divorces

Uncontested divorces usually are straightforward proceedings. In an uncontested divorce, the spouses agree to divorce and prepare all necessary documents for the court, and the court enters a divorce judgment at a final hearing.

A spouse also can default in a divorce proceeding when he or she fails to respond the complaint. In that case, the divorce is treated by the court as uncontested and proceeds to enter a divorce judgment at a final hearing.

An attorney’s assistance is still indispensable in these straightforward cases. Our attorneys protect your rights should your spouse later decide to oppose an allegation in your complaint or seek to vacate the default.

Contested divorces

Contested divorces can become very contentious. Richter & Rasberry zealously advocates for you and provides the support you need during this difficult time.

In a contested divorce, your spouse objects to an allegation in your complaint or disputes at least one issue in the proceedings. We work to settle these disputes without having to head to trial, seeking to find the best solution for you and your family. If the issue cannot be settled, we are prepared to go to trial.

At Richter & Rasberry, the complexity of your divorce does not matter. What matters is protecting the interests of you and your family throughout the divorce proceedings.
