The divorce process in Pennsylvania can vary depending on the circumstances. It can range from a relatively straightforward mutual consent or uncontested divorce to a more complex situation requiring the resolution of issues such as the division of assets, alimony and child custody.
In some cases, the couple may choose to enter into mediation to resolve these issues and avoid a protracted court battle. The couple will appear before a mediator, a neutral third party who facilitates communication to help them reach an agreement.
A mutual consent divorce could become final after 90 days, the mandatory waiting period in Pennsylvania. A contested divorce could take up to a year or longer, especially if the couple does not enter mediation — or this method fails to produce an agreement — and litigation occurs.
