Save Money: Contested divorces can be extremely costly. For many who fight through it, it can take many, many years to recover financial stability. But again, you don’t need to spend years on attorney fees, court fees, and the like. You and your soon-to-be-ex can opt to take the simple approach and go with an uncontested divorce. By working through decisions and coming to an agreement, you preserve your marital funds. Don’t think of this as you helping your ex-,… think of it as you helping yourself!
