A quick divorce is uncontested when both husband and wife accept an agreement with respect to all financial and divorce-related issues (e.g. grounds for divorce, child custody, child support, visitation, value and distribution of marital assets, allocation of marital debt, and spousal support). Here both partners must accept to the uncontested divorce.
