Preferred term

simplified divorce  

Definition

  • Divorce is never simple, but there are some actions that might make it less complicated, thereby reducing stress for all parties involved. Often, the contentious and protracted legal proceedings necessary to acquire a divorce, with equitable distribution of assets and accommodations for children and dependent spouses, results in a lengthy, financially expensive, and emotionally draining process.
