What Is an Uncontested Divorce?
When both spouses are in complete agreement on all aspects of their separation, this is commonly called an “uncontested divorce”. This includes the division of property and assets, the division of debts, child custody arrangements (if children are involved), child support payments, and spousal support, if applicable.
There are no disputes to resolve through litigation, so the uncontested divorce process is typically much faster, less expensive, and less emotionally taxing than a traditional, contested divorce. It allows couples to separate with dignity and move forward with their lives on a more positive note.
Do You Qualify for an Uncontested Divorce in San Antonio?
To be eligible for an uncontested divorce in Texas, you and your spouse must meet the following requirements:
- Both spouses must agree that the marriage is irretrievably broken and that there is no reasonable expectation of reconciliation.
- You must be in complete agreement on all terms of the divorce, including the division of community property and debt, child custody and visitation, child support, and spousal support, if applicable.
- You or your spouse must meet residency rules, which require residing in the state for at least six months and in the county where the divorce is filed for at least 90 days.

FAQ
If you and your spouse are close to an agreement but still have a few outstanding issues, it may be possible to resolve those issues through negotiation or mediation and then proceed with an uncontested divorce.
Lishman Law, PLLC can assist with these negotiations and help you reach a mutually agreeable settlement. However, if you and your spouse are unable to reach an agreement on all key terms, you will likely need to pursue a contested divorce and we can help with that too. Our team can identify areas of impasse and then pivot from uncontested to contested, tailoring a new strategy that serves your needs and goals.
If you and your spouse have a valid, written separation agreement that addresses all the key issues in your divorce, such as property division, child custody, and support, you can likely use that agreement as the basis for an uncontested divorce. Lishman Law, PLLC can review your agreement to ensure it is legally sound and meets the requirements for an uncontested divorce in Texas.
In an uncontested divorce, you and your spouse have the opportunity to create a parenting plan that works best for your family. You can agree on issues such as child custody, visitation schedules, and decision-making responsibilities. As long as the agreement is in the best interests of the child, the court will typically approve it.
If your spouse decides to withdraw their agreement or becomes uncooperative during the uncontested divorce process, the case will likely transition to a contested divorce. This means that you will need to resolve any outstanding issues through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
Lishman Law, PLLC can provide skilled representation throughout the contested divorce process, advocating for your rights and protecting your best interests.
While it is possible to represent yourself in an uncontested divorce, it is generally advisable to seek legal assistance from a qualified attorney. An attorney can ensure that all paperwork is properly prepared and filed, that your rights are protected, and that you understand the long-term implications of your settlement agreement.
