Quick divorce is an option many couples find attractive when they want to avoid a protracted battle and simply move on with their lives. A divorce can generally be expedited if there are no children involved and the property division has been voluntarily worked out between the parties. Some jurisdictions offer quick divorce options for out of state couples as long as one spouse meets a residency requirement for a short period of time. For example, in Nevada the residency can be just 6 weeks. This state offers uncontested divorce finalization that may be completed in 2-3 weeks from the date the petition is filed. The Dominican Republic can also perform legal divorces for U.S. residents as long as one of the parties shows up in person for a hearing. Again, both spouses have to voluntarily sign off on the papers for this to work. Some quick divorce service companies offer fast marriage dissolution decrees from Mexico, Haiti, and the Caribbean. The validity of some of these divorces may be called into question, so it is best to speak with an experienced attorney before paying for such services.
