Uncontested Divorce Lawyers in Binghamton
Making the Divorce Process as Simple & Stress-Free as Possible
When you say, “I do,” you do so with the dream of buying a home together, having kids, Disney vacations, and your own “happily ever after.” Divorce has always been for “other people” and when you were married, you knew with all your heart that your marriage was built on a solid foundation that would last a lifetime. Unfortunately, life doesn’t always go according to the fairy tale plans we make, and many pitfalls can complicate what seemed like the most perfect of situations.
We understand that many of the clients that walk into our office have gone to great lengths to try and save their marriage, but sometimes this simply isn’t possible. While the marriage didn’t work out, they still care that they both move forward in a positive direction, without dragging each other through the mud. In this case, an uncontested divorce may make the most sense and both parties can walk away getting with what they desired along with an amicable relationship moving forward. Our Binghamton uncontested divorce attorneys at Jackson Bergman, LLP are prepared to guide you every step of the way.

Common Questions We Hear at Our Free Uncontested Divorce Consultations
Can I start with an uncontested divorce and convert it to a contested divorce if things don’t go according to plan?
Yes, you can, however, the more efficient way to proceed is to start as a contested divorce and attempt to resolve the issues without the intervention of the courts and without lengthy discovery, depositions, and ultimately a trial. The lawyers at Jackson Bergman, LLP can do this with a detailed Stipulation of Settlement.
How long will my uncontested divorce take to process?
Generally, an uncontested divorce can take around 4 - 6 months. However, by working aggressively in talks with opposing counsel, we can often procure a final divorce decree for our clients in 3 months or less.
What if we have children together?
All matters such as child custody, support, visitation, etc. can be decided by you and included in your divorce papers. All decisions should be in the best interest of the children.
Can I represent myself in an uncontested divorce?
You can, but you may risk losing certain rights stemming from the marital relationship that are not readily apparent to a person who is not an attorney.
Will I be required to go to court in my uncontested divorce case?
Generally, as long as the divorce remains in an uncontested state, you will not need to go to the Court to settle your uncontested divorce.
Divorce Is Never Easy, But It Doesn’t Have to Be Painful
Neither you nor your spouse deserves to live life in a constant state of limbo and if you have children, they certainly don’t deserve it either. Being able to start your life over on a better foot, without financial or emotional burden, is priceless. Moving forward knowing that you and your partner did everything you could do to try and make things work, knowing that you’re providing an honest and equitable solution for each other, and that children (if any) are being well taken care of is the best way to put closure to this chapter of your life.
