Frequently Asked Questions

Can Hathaway Law Group represent both spouses?

It's a common misconception that one lawyer can represent both spouses in an uncontested divorce. This is not true. One lawyer cannot represent both sides in a divorce lawsuit. However, if both spouses agree on all terms, one lawyer can prepare all the paperwork and documents on behalf of one spouse. The other spouse can then decide if they are comfortable representing themself and reviewing the agreement, or if not they can seek their own independent counsel to help them review the prepared agreement.

What is the full uncontested divorce process?

When you choose our Uncontested Divorce Package, the process is streamlined to ensure efficiency and clarity. Here’s what you can expect:

Initial Packet and Intake: We send an initial packet to the hiring spouse to complete intake and provide the agreement reached between the spouses.
Review of Agreement: We review the information to ensure the agreement complies with Nebraska laws and rules.
Compliance Check: We advise if there are specific rules, classes, or requirements that need to be completed to move the case forward.
Filing with the Court: We draft and file all necessary documents with the court.
Service Documents: We provide service documents so the non-represented spouse can be served without involving a Sheriff.
Drafting Final Documents: We draft the required final documents. These documents may include a decree, property settlement agreement, parenting plan, child support calculations, and waivers.
Submission to the Judge: Once both spouses sign the final documents, we submit them to the judge for review and signature. With our Uncontested Divorce Package it is quite possible that neither spouse will need to personally appear before a judge.

How long does an uncontested divorce take to finalize?

In Nebraska, the judge can sign a final decree 60 days after your spouse is served. It is possible to have the final documents sent to the judge within 60 days. The divorce is final 30 days after the judicially signed decree is filed with the court.

Will I have to appear in court?

Most of the uncontested divorces we handle do not require either spouse to appear in court for the final hearing.

What is the quickest way to get a divorce?

Filing a no-fault, uncontested divorce with the help of a service like Hathaway Law Group may be the quickest way to get a divorce. Additionally, using our Uncontested Divorce Package can save thousands of dollars in legal fees.
