If you want a divorce in Oklahoma, it’s essential to understand the requirements. Oklahoma divorce laws are similar to other states, but the Sooner state still allows for fault-based and no-fault divorces. Generally, fault-based divorces are more complicated, time-consuming and expensive than no-fault divorces.
Read on to learn all the specific steps to take to secure the end of your marriage in an Oklahoma divorce. If it all seems overwhelming, you can always find an Oklahoma divorce lawyer to help you navigate the process.
As mentioned above, Oklahoma divorce laws allow for fault-based and no-fault divorce.
All divorces in Oklahoma must include grounds for divorce—depending on how the non-filing spouse responds, the divorce will either be contested or uncontested. If the couple can agree on everything from the grounds to the division of property to custody and child support (if applicable), the divorce will be uncontested.
If, on the other hand, there are areas where both parties can’t agree, the divorce is contested and will require mediation and, potentially, a trial.
