Irreconcilable Differences Divorce

Sometimes called "No-Fault Divorce, uncontested Divorce or ID Divorce"; this process puts both parties in control.

As long as you and your spouse agree on the terms of your divorce regarding property, assets, liabilities, and the care of your children (if any); the Judge will normally approve your divorce agreement, as you have both seen fit. This method of divorce is also preferable, as it is easier on everyone involved (especially children, if any). It is the quickest pathway to a final divorce, requiring only 60 days if there are no children of the marriage and only 90 days if there are children of the marriage. Both parties will be provided with all necessary forms and filings at the outset of their case so that they may immediately begin to proceed to a conclusion in their matter.While you and your spouse maintain the absolute right to attend any and all court proceedings; in the majority of these cases, neither party will be required to ever have to go to court in order to be granted their final divorce. Conveniently, it is also THE CHEAPEST method of getting a divorce.

At Killen Law Office, this type of divorce proceeding costs only $1000.00 for a marriage without children and $1300.00 for a marriage with children. And there are NO HIDDEN FEES.

Default Divorce

Default divorce cases are those in which one party has either refused to participate, made themselves purposely unavailable, or is otherwise impermissibly absent.

This prevents the other party from proceeding with filing and obtaining a final divorce.

In these matters, where the law permits, the Killen Law Office employs extensive knowledge of statutory law, case law, specific jurisdictional process and The Tennessee Rules of Civil Procedure in order to secure you a final divorce, whether your spouse wishes to participate in the proceedings or not.

Contested Divorce

The Killen Law office has experience handling everything from the simplest of amicable, uncontested divorce cases all the way to hard-fought, complex divorce proceedings requiring forensic accountants, expert witnesses and arbitration. While each case is unique, we treat every single one with the same amount of care you would desire in any circumstance, given the sensitivity and importance of the subject matter. As there are many different grounds for divorce and varying degrees of complexity from one case to the next, the estimated duration and costs involved in your particular matter can be best gauged upon your initial consultation.
