Getting an Online Divorce in Missouri

Our online divorce service is designed for spouses who want a simple, cheap and fast divorce in Missouri. The key factor to determine whether an online divorce will work for your situation is that both spouses can agree to the terms of the divorce, including the division of property, division of debts and any child-related issues, if applicable.

ReliableDivorce.com makes the online divorce process easy and affordable for virtually every budget. Based on your answers to our questionnaire, we determine all the necessary documents you will need and the documents are prepared as required for the court’s approval. We provide you step-by-step written instructions beginning with how to file your divorce papers and all the way through how to finalize your divorce.

We have spent more than 15 years helping people file for and complete their divorce. Unlike many other online divorce services, our services don’t end once you file your initial divorce papers. We also want to make sure you are easily able to finalize your divorce as quickly as Missouri law allows. We understand that even with step-by-step instructions to guide you through the divorce process, it can still be overwhelming. That’s why our service continues even after you have your completed divorce papers in hand. Included with our service is the option to schedule a phone consultation with your case manager who can answer any questions you may have or even walk you through each step of the process if necessary.

The bottom line is that if you and your spouse can agree on the terms of your divorce, then an online divorce is the fastest, easiest and least expensive option to dissolve your marriage. Whether you have children, own a home or own other property, as long as you and your spouse can reach an agreement on all such issues, then you are eligible to use our online divorce services to file your divorce in Missouri.

Uncontested vs. Contested Divorce

An uncontested divorce is one in which both spouses have reached an agreement on all the major issues, such as property division, division of debt, child custody, child support, and spouse support.

A contested divorce in one in which the spouses cannot reach an agreement on the major issues and, as a result, the court will have to decide the final outcome on the disputed issues.

In either type of divorce, the process starts by one spouse filing for divorce.

Benefits to an Uncontested Divorce

Save Money. Spouses save a significant amount of money in an uncontested divorce vs. a contested divorce. Instead of paying the high attorney’s fees that accompany a contested divorce, that money stays in the parties’ pockets.

Save Time. Because the spouses have already reached an agreement on the important issues, the paperwork is stream-lined and the parties don’t have to spend time attending multiple court hearings and formal negations that can take many months or even years to complete.

Save Mental Health. Fighting your divorce out in court adds additional stress to an already difficult situation. An uncontested divorce results in a much easier and less stressful legal process.

We created our Missouri online divorce service to maximize these benefits. ReliableDivorce.com provides the lowest price online divorce service in the market with the fastest results. You receive your divorce papers immediately after completing our online questionnaire so you can file your divorce today or any other day you choose.

How to File for Divorce Without a Lawyer in Missouri

Missouri Residency Requirement: In Missouri, at least one of the spouses must have lived in the state of Missouri for a minimum of 90 days prior to filing. Since only one spouse needs to meet this residency requirement, you may file for divorce in Missouri even if your spouse resides in another state. [Missouri Rev. Statute §452.300].

Any one of the following items will establish residency - a valid Missouri driver’s license, ID card, or voter’s registration card.

A divorce action may be filed in the county where either spouse currently resides. Missouri does not set a minimum in-county residency requirement before a party may file in that particular county.

Detailed court-filing instructions are included with your completed divorce papers, so that you know how the process works.

Our online divorce service makes it easy to file for divorce without a lawyer. There is no requirement that you have a lawyer to file for divorce in Missouri. Once you sign up to use our online divorce service, you simply fill out our online questionnaire to begin your divorce paperwork. It can either be filled out on your own or with your spouse's help. We provide you with all the paperwork needed to file and complete your divorce along with detailed instructions for every step of the process.

The first step of the process is to ensure you meet the state's residency requirements to file for divorce in Missouri.

Grounds for Divorce

Missouri is a true no-fault divorce state since a spouse is not required or even permitted to cite the wrongdoing of the other spouse as grounds for a divorce.

All divorces in Missouri are filed as "no-fault" divorces. This means that at least one spouse claims that there is an irretrievable breakdown in the marriage and no reasonable expectation of reconciliation.

[Missouri Rev. Statute §452.305].

Child Custody and Visitation in Missouri

Legal Custody in Missouri

Legal custody refers to who makes or participates in the major decisions regarding the raising of the child.

Legal custody is determined based on what is in the child's best interest.

[Missouri Rev. Statute § 452.375].

Joint Legal Custody is where both parents have the right to participate in making the major decisions affecting the child.

Sole Legal Custody is where only one parent has the right to make decisions affecting the child.

In Missouri, courts generally favor joint legal custody, but not necessarily joint or equal physical custody of a child.

Physical Custody in Missouri

Physical custody says who the children will primarily reside with and the other parent will have visitation as discussed below.

In Missouri, the non-custodial parent generally has the same visitation rights regardless of whether sole custody or joint custody is ordered in the divorce decree. There are exceptions to this general rule of course, such as when there is a history of domestic violence.

Visitation

Visitation can be any schedule agreed upon by both parents and can be changed at any time provided both parents are in agreement. Basically, the parents are in control of visitation provided they both agree to it and it is in the best interest of the child. If the parents cannot reach an agreement on visitation then the court will require the parents to follow a specific schedule that is determined by the court. The state provides guidelines on visitation and many parents find it easier to just go by the standard guideline visitation schedule. This will be explained in more detail in your divorce papers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will my divorce take?

Short Answer: 45-60 days.

Detailed Answer: Missouri has a mandatory 30-day waiting period that begins when the initial petition is filed. This means the court cannot finalize any divorce until after this 30-day waiting period has expired. However, the actual time it takes will largely depend on how quickly you and your spouse complete and file all the necessary paperwork and the judge's schedule. Assuming there are no major hurdles, it is reasonable to expect your divorce to be finalized 45-60 days after filing the initial papers.

What documents are needed to file for divorce in Missouri?

Short Answer: 1) Petition for Dissolution of Marriage and 2) Family Court Information Sheet.

Detailed Answer: Additional documents are needed if spouses have minor children together. Our online divorce service will provide you all of the forms needed for the entire divorce process along with detailed instructions for every step. If you have any questions along the way, you may also schedule a call with one of our legal professionals who will walk you through the process.

How soon can I get remarried after my divorce is final?

Short Answer: Immediately.

Detailed Answer: Missouri does not have a mandatory waiting period between finalizing a divorce and when a party may marry another person.

Can I file for divorce in Missouri if my spouse lives in another state?

Short Answer: Yes.

Detailed Answer: If your spouse lives outside of Missouri, then as long as you satisfy the state's residency requirement, you may file in the state.

How long do I need to live in Missouri before I can file for divorce in the state?

Short Answer: 90 days.

Detailed Answer: Missouri Residency Requirement: At least one spouse must be a resident of Missouri for 90 days prior to filing for divorce. If you have lived in the state for less than 90 days, but your spouse has lived in Missouri for at least 90 days, then you may still file for divorce since residency requirement would be met based on your spouse's residency.

Missouri Online Divorce Forms

We only use divorce forms that have been approved by the Missouri Supreme Court. As a result, our Missouri divorce forms are guaranteed to be approved by any Missouri family court. Our software determines what forms are needed and how to correctly complete the documents based on the answers you provide when completing our online questionnaire. Our software is updated anytime there is a change in the Missouri divorce laws. Our service makes getting an online divorce as seamless as possible and at a price that meets every budget.

Child Support

Child support is set based on the state-mandated guidelines. Using a Missouri child support calculator is best for determining the amount of child support to be paid. The child support calculator uses the child support guidelines prescribed by Missouri law. In the event that you and your spouse cannot agree on this issue, the court will use the same calculation as the basis for determining the support obligation. Our online divorce service provides you the guidelines and a child support calculator during your questionnaire.

Child support obligation in Missouri generally ends at 18, graduation from high school or 21 years of age, whichever comes first. However, the support obligation is extended if the child is enrolled in post-secondary education, in which case it continues until graduation or the child reaches age 22, whichever comes first. [Missouri Rev. Statute § 452.340].
