Is a No Fault Divorce the Same as an Uncontested Divorce?

What Is a No-Fault Divorce?

A no-fault divorce allows spouses to end a marriage without proving misconduct by either party. In New York, couples may cite an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage as the basis for divorce.

What Makes a Divorce Uncontested?

An uncontested divorce occurs when both spouses agree on important issues such as child custody, child support, property division, and spousal maintenance. Because there are fewer disputes, uncontested divorces are often faster and less expensive.

Can a Divorce Be Both No-Fault and Uncontested?

Yes. Many divorces in New York are both no-fault and uncontested. This means the spouses agree the marriage should end and are also able to resolve the major legal issues without going to trial.
