How it generally works

Common questions

What does an uncontested divorce require?

The marriage must have lasted at least one year, both spouses must apply together or one must accept the other’s case, and the judge must approve the protocol.

Where is a divorce case filed?

At the family court where either spouse lives, or where they lived together for the last six months.
