Minnesota Uncontested Divorce Lawyer

Nature of Uncontested Divorce

Not every divorce is a long, expensive process. In many cases, the parties have reached agreement on most or all of the issues. Our  Minnesota uncontested divorce lawyers can help conclude your uncontested divorce quickly, efficiently and inexpensively. About one-half of our practice is devoted to uncontested divorces.   

Uncontested Divorce Process

Usually only one of the spouses hires a lawyer to prepare the necessary paperwork. Lawyers cannot represent both sides in a divorce. If, for example, you hire our firm to handle an uncontested divorce, we will prepare and file the divorce petition, marital termination agreement and divorce decree. Your spouse only needs to read and sign the agreement. They may call to ask us general questions throughout the process, but they must always bear in mind that we work for you.

Flat Fee Retainer 

The fees associated with an uncontested divorce depend upon the issues in the case. For cases in which the parties do not have children, we charge a flat rate of $1,850.00. For cases in which the parties have children, we charge a flat rate of $2,350.00. The difference rests in the fact that a court appearance and additional drafting is required with cases involving children. From the fee paid to the firm, we pay all court costs (usually around $400.00). The rate includes all meetings, phone calls, e-mails, correspondence, drafting, court appearances and negotiation. Our clients appreciate the predictability of a "package" rate.
