Uncontested Divorce

Fredericksburg Uncontested Divorce Attorney

Helping Clients With Uncontested Divorce Matters in Virginia

There are two different routes you can take if you are looking to get a divorce: You can file contested or uncontested.

A contested divorce is what most people think of when they hear the word "divorce." In a contested divorce, your case will be taken to court and a Virginia family law judge will make the final decisions on issues that you and your spouse cannot agree on. An uncontested divorce is ideal for spouses who completely agree on all the major aspects of their divorce and who simply need someone to take care of the details.

Attorney Lewis Lowery can help ensure your uncontested divorce is finalized quickly and painlessly so you can move forward with your life. With 35+ years of legal experience, Attorney Lowery has worked on countless family law cases in Fredericksburg and can provide sound legal counsel for couples considering an uncontested divorce.

Who Qualifies for an Uncontested Divorce in Virginia?

When both parties agree on all the basic terms of their separation, they may be able to file an uncontested divorce.

This means the couple has discussed and agreed on major divorce matters like:

Our experienced Virginia divorce attorney can help with smaller details, but the basics should already be settled to both spouses’ satisfaction.

Advantages of Choosing an Uncontested Divorce 

Filing an uncontested divorce can be much simpler than a contested one. Because the basics have already been agreed upon, the divorcing couple only has to file the paperwork. With everything already settled, the uncontested divorce process will typically be much shorter than a contested divorce, and likely less challenging. By spending less time in court, it will likely be easier for the married couple to have a clean break and could prevent unnecessary conflict.

Couples with children may also find an uncontested divorce to be a better decision because it could potentially be less stressful for their kids. With a shorter and more amicable divorce process, you can both go on with your separate lives more quickly and introduce your children to their new schedule without any drawn-out court dates to work around.

It is also less expensive to choose an uncontested divorce. If you already have a signed marital separation and property settlement agreement, we can handle your case for a flat fee of $900, which includes the cost of the clerk’s filing fee.

    I give Lewis my highest recommendation. He was always kind, patient, and sympathetic. He made me feel comfortable all the way through a very difficult divorce. He was incredibly quick at responding to me, whether by email, phone, or in setting up a meeting. He explained everything to me at every step of the process, and he is a great explainer. He knows all the ins and outs of the courts in this area, which makes him very effective. He is a superb lawyer and legal tactician. I can say that because I’m a lawyer myself.

    “I will be highly recommending Mr. Lowery to anyone in need of an attorney for family matters.”
    I have been thoroughly impressed . . . Being my first time ever needing and using an attorney, I was very nervous because I have heard many horror stories working with attorneys that don't respond promptly or don't truly work for their client's best interest (basically just taking their clients’ money), and I am relieved that my experience with Mr. Lowery was not like any of those bad stories. The money I spent was well worth it. Thank you again for making a scary experience a little less frightening! I will be highly recommending Mr. Lowery to anyone in need of an attorney for family matters.
