  1. Divorce Is Quicker Legally, But Reality Is Different

  2. In many places around the country, there is a waiting period that must be adhered to when it comes to getting a divorce. The effort is to make the state’s family court system more efficient, freeing up the backlog of cases. Many people like the idea of lowering the wait time, as they do not think the government should be able to tell adults that they cannot separate when they want to. Emy A. Cordano knows that sometimes divorce is necessary and that regardless of a new law, it can get complicated.

  3. Divorce Issues: First, be aware that in Utah, those seeking a divorce must participate in at least one mediation session. Utah law specifies this and it is done in the hopes that a couple can reconcile their differences and remain married. After the mediation, if divorce is still the goal, then it is important to seek legal help. If one party has a lawyer, the other party needs to have one as well. 3

  4. What Is At Stake? If you have children, you will need to work out both legal and physical custody issues. Legal custody determines which parent gets to make legal decisions on behalf of the child Physical custody deals with where the child will reside For both types of child custody, there can be both joint or sole custody and they do not have to be the same for both. While it is usually in the best interest of the child for both parents to be a part of their life, sometimes there are reasons that cannot happen.

  5. In a divorce, it must be decided who gets what property. This can become complicated, especially if there have been acquisitions made during the marriage. The issue of alimony payments also needs to be decided, as the court will want to ensure that both parties maintain the kind of lifestyle they have been accustomed to during the marriage. If infidelity, physical abuse, or drug and alcohol abuse play a part in the separation, the divorce can become even more complicated. 5
