- DivorceIn Indiana a Non-Contested Divorce tends to be the quickest, least expensive, and least complicated way to divorce. A non-contested divorce is a cost effective way to work through the divorce process, however, you and your spouse must work together and negotiate the terms of the divorce. If there are minor children involved, both spouses will likely have to attend a parenting class. The divorce is usually final within 2 to 3 months from the filing of the Petition for Dissolution of Marriage. Call to speak with Terrence Kirby, an Indianapolis non-contested divorce attorney today.
