subclass of: RDhTbfA9WACnFGtRuw8v57e
definition: A Contested Divorce is a type of divorce in which the spouses are unable to reach an agreement on key issues such as division of property, child custody, spousal support, or other matters related to the dissolution of their marriage. In a contested divorce, these issues are typically resolved through litigation, with a court making decisions on behalf of the spouses. It often involves a more lengthy and adversarial legal process compared to an uncontested divorce, where the parties agree on the terms of the divorce.
