Divorce Law
Divorce laws vary from state to state and the information provided here is a general overview. Please consult a divorce lawyer or attorney in your state for professional advice.
Divorce Law
A Divorce Agreement is the Same as an Agreement; Separation Agreement; Property Settlement Agreement; Marital
Agreement, or A legally enforceable, spousal contract settling all matters. It is generally not referred to as a “divorce agreement” since only
the court can grant a divorce. If the parties fail to reach an agreement, the
case goes to trial, and the court’s decision and judgment is substituted.
Court’s judgments are modifiable based on a “material change in circumstances.” An
agreement may be either modifiable or unmodifiable (“surviving”).
Typically, these agreements settle issues relating to:
1. Asset and liability division
2. Alimony, health, and life insurance
3. Legal and physical custody, child support, visitation, medical insurance
and expenses, and college.
Divorce Decree; Decree of Dissolution; Judgment of Divorce
The court's final judgment after expiration of the interlocutory or judgment nisi period. Upon this date you are legally divorced and can remarry. Generally, the final decree occurs automatically upon termination of the waiting period. Additional court filings and appearances are usually not required.
