Generally, a divorce can be either contested or non-contested. In a non-contested divorce, all of the issues such as maintenance, child support and custody, and asset division have been agreed upon by the parties, meaning there are no outstanding issues to be settled by the court. This generally allows the case to proceed and conclude easier and quicker, thereby reducing the attorney's fees and expenses for the parties. Obviously, in a contested divorce, there are some outstanding issues that must be decided by a judge because the parties could not reach an agreement. These cases will take much longer, require more time, and therefore, be more expensive for everybody involved.
