Arizona is a state that works hard to make the divorce process easy for couples who have decided to call it quits on the marriage. The courts do not require a divorce to have an at fault party, just to determine that the marriage is not able to work anymore. To initiate a divorce, one party or the other just has to file for the papers for divorce and have them served to the other partner. Filing fees for this cost around $170, but can be more depending on the city you are filing in. Arizona divorce lawyers will also be happy to help you with the filing of your divorce, if you need advice or help in making sure you are getting everything correct.
Having an Arizona divorce attorney can help a lot in a divorce where one spouse is contesting but in divorces that are amicable, an attorney could be a waste of money. Because Arizona does make it easy to get through the divorce process, if the partners are not contesting anything and agree on the settlements, an attorney is generally not needed. All the filing spouse has to do is file the proper paperwork on time, have it served, and then wait for the other to sign off on it.
