Important Divorce Issues

Ending a marriage often entails financial and emotional strain not only on the couple but the children involved.  Difficult decisions will have to be made, and significant lifestyle changes after divorce need to be prepared for.  Having knowledge of all the issues involved when filing for a Washington divorce will help you with your divorce process.

The following are the basic divorce issues that determine whether a divorce is contested or uncontested.

• Alimony issues after divorce
• Division of property and debts
• Child support after divorce
• Child custody issues

If both parties agree on these issues, then the divorce is said to be uncontested.

If, however, you and your spouse disagree on at least one of the divorce issues, the divorce is said to be contested. In the case of a contested divorce, you and your spouse may need to settle your differences either in court or through a mediator.

If the divorce is uncontested, you can use Washington Divorce Online to begin the divorce process.
