What Is A Washington State Uncontested Divorce?A Washington State uncontested divorce is really nothing more than a negotiated or an amicable divorce. It is where you and your spouse sit down and agree in advance about all of the critical issues regarding your divorce.
Rather than letting some judge arbitrarily decide how to divide your property and debts and how much time you and your spouse should spend with your children, you make the decisions. You and your spouse remain in charge of your lives and you decide how to move forward from here.
Why pursue a Washington State uncontested divorce?
It's simple really. Because you and your spouse remain in charge of your own live and in charge of all of the critical decisions regarding your divorce.
You decide what is fair and reasonable. You decide what is best for you and your spouse. You decide how you are going to divide your debts and assets. You decide who is going to keep what furniture and other property. You decide who is going to stay in the house and who is going to leave.
If children are involved, you decide how you are going to divide your parenting responsibilities, and you decide how you are going to share residential visitation throughout the calendar year. You decide what is best for your children, and whether you and your spouse should be ordered to pay for their college education.
A Washington state uncontested divorce is by far the simplest, smartest and least expensive way to end your marriage. It's also the most intelligent. Pursuing a Washington state uncontested divorce will typically also save you thousands and thousands of dollars while allowing you avoid the emotional and psychological turmoil of traditional litigation.
Think about it for a minute. If you and your spouse are still able to effectively communicate, work together and negotiate an uncontested divorce, why would you even consider any other option?

Is A Washington State Uncontested Divorce Complicated?
The answer to this question is really both yes and no. Any divorce action requires that specific statutory and procedural requirements be met. In Washington State, all divorces must meet the statutory requirements found in the relevant sections of the Revised Code of Washington (the "RCW").
The primary section of the RCW that pertains to divorce law, whether contested or uncontested, is Chapter 26. In order for your final Decree of Dissolution to be valid, it must contain specific language and meet the procedural requirements of Chapter 26.
If there are children, real property or significant assets and debts involved, it is critical that the final orders be properly prepared and reviewed by an experienced Washington divorce lawyer.
Ambiguous language in uncontested divorce decrees that are not properly drafted can become a big problem down the road. It can create uncertainty and confusion. It is also important to ensure that you are properly protected from improper actions by your spouse both before and after you are divorced.
