Whether you’re ready to file a divorce petition in Westminster or you’ve been served with divorce papers by your spouse, it’s good to understand the options for the way your divorce proceeds. There are several types of Colorado divorces to consider, including the following:
Uncontested Divorce: in this type of divorce, both spouses come to mutually acceptable terms for all aspects of their divorce and craft a settlement agreement with the help of their attorneys. A judge reviews the agreement and issues final orders without a trial. This saves time, money, and contention.
Contested Divorce: a contested divorce occurs when spouses aren’t able to agree on one or more terms of their divorce settlement. Both sides argue their positions in court and a judge makes final decisions and issues divorce orders.
Collaborative Divorce: in this type of divorce, both spouses agree to resolve any disputes outside of court through meetings with their attorney and mediation when required.
Mediated Divorce: both spouses agree to attend mediation and allow a neutral mediator to settle their disputes and make a binding divorce agreement without going to court.
Colorado family courts also facilitate legal separations, where spouses remain legally married but live apart with an agreement or court order for child custody, child support, and the division of their marital assets.
Divorcing spouses must make decisions on all aspects of their Colorado divorce or let a judge decide for them for the following:
Colorado is an equitable division of marital assets state. This law requires spouses to retain only the separate assets that belonged solely to them before the marriage and divide all assets and properties acquired during the marriage in a fair and equitable manner.
