Those years when divorcing caused social ostracising are long gone. In these modern times divorcing is common place and there are even dedicated courts dealing with nothing but the dissolving of marriages. Single parent families have become the norm. This does not mean, however, that divorcing is not painful and fraught with many conflicting emotions. Nevertheless, by opting for a budget uncontested divorce GA couples can save a lot of money.

It is an unfortunate fact that divorces are so often typified by spite, bitterness and conflict. These types of divorces are almost always contested because neither partner is willing to be reasonable and to actively try to achieve an amicable separation. These divorces are hideously expensive and the court proceedings are open for public scrutiny. In most cases both partners will end up much poorer.

It has certainly become easier to obtain divorces but there are still many laws that govern the dissolving of a marriage. The future of their children must be considered and their joint estate needs to be divided. In some cases it may be necessary to sell assets such as the family home and it is not always easy to liquidate joint investments and savings. In cases that are contested decisions on all these matters are made by the court.

Even the most reasonable couples will need some professional help in reaching a final agreement on just how the marriage will be dissolved. Marriages are governed by many laws and any agreement must adhere to all of these laws. The rights of every party involved, especially the rights of the children, must be honoured at all times. Most divorcing couples hire a lawyer to help them in this regard.

Many divorcing couples do not realize that they can save even more money by foregoing the services of a lawyer altogether. There is no rule that requires them to use attorneys to finalize divorces. They may use qualified and experienced counsellors to help them draw up a final agreement. These counsellors are much cheaper than lawyers and they are licensed to deal with this type of case.

Professionals like lawyers and counsellors charge for their time. The less time their clients use, the smaller the final bill will be. Prudent and reasonable couples can therefore save a lot of money by privately reaching agreement on as many issues as possible before even engaging the services of a lawyer or a counsellor. The role of the professional will then simply be to present the final agreement to the court for approval.

Uncontested divorces offer numerous benefits. If both partners are reasonable and if they do not allow any negative emotions to colour their dealings with each other, everybody benefits. This is especially true if there are children involved. In bitter, contested divorces children often suffer tremendous trauma which is often carried into adulthood. A lot of money can be saved and the entire matter escapes any form of public scrutiny.

It is sad that so many marriages simply do not last. There are many reasons for this, including the increasing pressure of modern living, the ease with which divorces can be obtained and a major decline in the moral fibre of society as a whole. If a marriage cannot be saved, the least the divorcing couple could do is to avoid a protracted and expensive process.
