North Carolina · Uncontested divorce

Do you qualify for an uncontested divorce in North Carolina?

An uncontested North Carolina divorce fits couples who have completed the year of separation and have settled, or have nothing to settle on, property and support. A few situations still call for care.

  • You have lived separate and apart for a full year.
  • One spouse has lived in North Carolina for at least six months.
  • Property and support are settled in an agreement, or there's nothing to divide.
  • If you need to divide property or claim alimony, raise it before the judgment or see a lawyer.
