Tennessee Uncontested Divorce

The uncontested divorce process offers many advantages over proceeding to trial. While divorce litigation can be expensive, it also can aggravate an already delicate situation. Resolving a divorce amicably and out of the court reduces the emotional strain on children, helps parents maintain a healthy post-divorce relationship and enables the parties to retain control over the cost and the decisions made.

Kizer & Black, Attorneys, PLLC, offers a flat-rate fee in resolving uncontested divorces in Tennessee. We carefully review all aspects of your divorce settlement agreement, including provisions for the distribution of marital assets and debts, child custody (parenting plan), child support, alimony and other issues to be resolved in your uncontested divorce.

Tennessee Contested Divorce

Even when certain issues in a divorce are disputed, it may be possible to come to a decision on many issues. If the parties are able to resolve some of the issues as a result of negotiations or successful mediation, the court will only need to address the remaining disputed issues. In addition to lowering court costs, this process enables the parties to minimize the uncertainty of trial while also standing firm on the issues which they feel are most important. However, if it is necessary to proceed to trial in order to preserve your interests and the interests of your children, Ms. Hackworth can provide the aggressive legal advocacy that is necessary in divorce litigation.
