Differences Between Contested and Uncontested Divorce in Ontario
In Ontario, the key difference between contested and uncontested divorce lies in whether spouses can agree on major issues such as property division, child custody, and support. An uncontested divorce is typically faster, less expensive, and largely administrative, while a contested divorce involves court intervention to resolve disputes and may require hearings or even a trial. Understanding these distinctions, along with the governing laws like the Divorce Act and Family Law Act, can help you choose the right path for your situation.
