What is a Non-Adversarial Divorce?

Those who are eligible for non-adversarial divorces can get divorced in as little as 35 days. What is more, these couples do not have to go to court and they do not need to have their divorce heard before a judge. The regular Connecticut divorce process can take at least three months, so this form of divorce is much faster. In addition, you don’t have to deal with the hassle of going to court and you will have the opportunity to quickly move on with your life.

You are eligible for the non-adversarial divorce if you and your spouse fit the following criteria:

  • Have been married for less than ten years.
  • You and your spouse do not have children together and are not pregnant with a child.
  • The value of the property owned between you and your spouse is less than $80,000.
  • You and your spouse don’t have an interest in your real property or the title.
  • You don’t have a bankruptcy pending.
  • You don’t have a pension benefit plan.
  • There isn’t another action for the dissolution of your marriage.
  • There aren’t protective or restraining orders between you and your spouse.
