Auburn Divorce Lawyers
If you and your spouse have already reached an agreement, then our Auburn divorce lawyer can get you a cheap and easy uncontested divorce. If you are not in agreement, then a contested divorce will need to be filed. However, a contested divorce is much more expensive and takes much longer to complete. 
In an uncontested divorce, it is mostly paperwork. We just prepare the paperwork and both of you sign it and return it to us to file. That is a flat attorney’s fee plus a filing fee that the Court requires. There is usually no court and it is very simple.
In a contested divorce, there is no agreement. A divorce is filed and your divorce attorney fights for you at hearings and negotiations along the way. At the end, there will be a trial (if an agreement cannot be reached). At this trial, the attorneys for both parties will present all evidence to the judge and the Court will decide all marital issues once and for all.
Contested Divorce Attorneys in Auburn
If you and your spouse cannot come to an agreement, then you will have to file a contested divorce. To do a contested divorce, one spouse serves the other with a Complaint. The person who was served then retains an Auburn or Tuskegee divorce lawyer to help them file a response to the Complaint.
Contested divorces are complicated and more involved than a straightforward uncontested divorce which is why the attorney fees will be higher. Because contested divorces tend to have a lot of back and forth, the attorney fees can become quite costly. When you call our office, our Auburn divorce lawyers will let you know their retainer when you do the consultation.
