Uncontested Divorces Are a Specialty Area

Let a Divorce Lawyer in Bolivar, Missouri Mediate Your Case

A dissolution of marriage, or divorce, can be very costly and time-consuming, especially in situations in which the parties can no longer effectively communicate. However, there are times when a husband and wife know that their marriage is irretrievably broken, but they are still capable of coming to an agreement on all issues that would otherwise be decided during the course of divorce proceedings. When the parties agree on everything, they can pursue an uncontested divorce, which is far less expensive and generally much quicker than a normal dissolution of marriage.

The Shive Law Firm specializes in uncontested divorces and can help you and your spouse with the drafting of all required documents while avoiding all of the procedural pitfalls of the family law court system. Contact the Shive Law Firm today if you are interested in learning more about uncontested divorce.
