Understanding Uncontested Divorce Under Virginia Law
An uncontested divorce in Virginia is a dissolution of marriage where both parties agree on all major issues—property division, spousal support, child custody, and child support—without requiring a trial. This is typically achieved through a signed property settlement agreement. The primary statute governing divorce grounds is Va. Code § 20-91, which outlines both no-fault and fault-based grounds. For a no-fault divorce, Virginia requires a separation period of at least six months if there are no minor children and a signed separation agreement, or one year if there are minor children. The court must find that the marriage is irretrievably broken. Mr. Sris, founder of Law Offices Of SRIS, P.C. (founded 1997), personally amended the equitable distribution statute, Va. Code § 20-107.3, demonstrating deep experience in Virginia family law.
