Uncontested Divorce

Quick Overview: Uncontested Divorce in Texas

An uncontested divorce is the simplest and most affordable way to end a marriage in Texas. When both spouses agree on issues like property division, custody, child support, and spousal support, the process becomes quicker, calmer, and far less expensive.

At The Ashmore Law Firm, we help Dallas–Fort Worth couples navigate uncontested divorces with clarity and confidence—making sure paperwork is correct, agreements are fair, and your case moves smoothly through the court system.

Key Facts About Uncontested Divorce in Texas

Both spouses must agree on every issue.
If you disagree on even one major point, the case becomes contested.

The 60-day waiting period still applies.
Texas requires at least 60 days between filing and finalizing a divorce.

It’s often the fastest and most affordable option.
Fewer hearings, less conflict, and lower fees.

A written, signed agreement is required.
Courts need clear terms regarding property, debt, custody, and support.

You still benefit from an attorney’s guidance.
Mistakes or vague language can create problems years later.

Uncontested doesn’t mean “DIY.”
You still want the protection of a lawyer who knows the DFW courts.

Works well for couples without major disputes.
Especially when communication is strong and both spouses want a peaceful exit.

Postnuptial Agreements for DFW Couples

Uncontested divorce offers a path that avoids the stress and conflict many people associate with the divorce process. When both spouses communicate openly and agree on the terms, the court system becomes much easier to navigate.

DFW couples choose uncontested divorce when they can agree on:

• how to divide property and debt
• parenting time and conservatorship
• child support
• spousal support (if any)
• who keeps the house or whether to sell it
• long-term financial expectations

It’s a good fit for couples who want to protect their privacy, save money, protect their children from conflict, and move forward with dignity.

A Peaceful Approach

Uncontested divorce doesn’t mean your marriage was easy—it means you’re choosing a respectful way to end it. You can avoid court battles, emotional strain, and needless expense.

A Faster Path Through the System

While contested cases can take months—or years—an uncontested divorce often moves through the Dallas or Tarrant County courts much faster.
