What Is A Non-Contested Divorce in Arizona

My name is Amanda Szpakowski. I am the Family Law legal assistant here at the Bornmann Law Group. I specialize in anything family law-related; custody, visitation, father's rights, anything family law.

The quickest process to get a divorce done is what's called a consent decree. Basically, that's a non-contested divorce, everyone agrees on absolutely everything. Basically, you would still file a petition in response. But both parties would, at that point, sign what's called a 'consent decree'. The consent decree is filed 60-days after the petition is filed and it takes about a week with the judge to be approved after the consent decree is filed, and the whole process takes about two months. And that's the quickest process to get a divorce. Any contested divorces can take anywhere from seven months to a couple of years, depending on the parties' disagreements.
