Uncontested vs. Contested Divorce in Arizona 

There are two types of divorce recognized under Arizona law: uncontested divorce and contested divorce. In an uncontested divorce, both spouses agree on all matters related to the divorce, including the division of their marital property and debts, child custody, parenting plans, child support, and spousal support (also known as "spousal maintenance" or “alimony”). 

When two spouses disagree on even one component of their divorce, the divorce is considered “contested.” Any issue being contested will be presented before a judge who will then make a decision for the two parties involved.

Grounds for Divorce 

If you’ve filed a divorce petition in Arizona, a court will need to see that there are grounds — or valid legal reasons — before granting your request. Typically, you will only need to state that your marriage is "irretrievably broken," meaning you believe there is no reasonable chance of salvaging it. Most uncontested divorces are considered “no-fault” divorces because, typically, neither spouse blames the other for the failure of the marriage. 

Let Us Help You Start Moving Forward 

Divorce is a deeply personal matter that affects not only you but the people you love most as well. For matters as delicate as this, be sure to secure honest and intelligent representation.
