What is an uncontested divorce?<\/h2>\n

An uncontested divorce in Toronto is a divorce where both spouses agree on key issues such as property division, child custody, child support, and spousal support. It is typically simpler, quicker, and more cost-effective than a contested divorce, where the parties cannot agree on one or more of these matters.
\nWhile uncontested divorces are more straightforward, it\u2019s still important to follow the correct legal steps to ensure everything is settled properly.<\/p>\n

  2. Residency: <\/strong>At least one of you must have lived in Ontario for at least one year before filing for divorce.<\/li>\n
  3. Draft a separation agreement: <\/strong>You and your spouse should work together to create a separation agreement.
