How to Get a Divorce in Utah

Getting a divorce in Utah can be a stressful and complicated process. Still, you must take steps to ensure the divorce process succeeds.

  1. You must meet all of the Utah residency requirements for filing for divorce. This includes having lived in UT state for at least three months prior to filing and living within specific counties or districts if applicable.
  2. Couples must then file a petition for dissolution of marriage with their county clerk and pay the required filing fee to divorce. Depending on the situation, additional documents such as proof of income, financial disclosure forms, parenting plans, and orders may also need to be submitted.
  3. In divorce cases where both parties can reach an agreement without going to family court in UT, they may file an agreed decree, simplifying the process significantly. 
  4. Suppose negotiations fail or both parties cannot reach a mutually beneficial outcome. In that case, either party may call on a judge to make a ruling via trial proceedings instead.

Regardless of whether trial proceedings continue, all couples in Sandy or Salt Lake City should get legal help from a family law attorney with experience to ensure their legal rights are respected throughout the divorce process and that they end up with an arrangement that best serves themselves and any children involved.

Understanding Fair Distribution of Assets & Debt 

When you divorce, you’re separating two lives. 

If couples in Sandy or Salt Lake City split everything down the middle, it would be easy — but it’s never easy. 

The couple’s assets and debt should be divided fair and equally in a divorce case. But other factors come into play.

  • How much of the assets were brought into the marriage by each partner? 
  • How much debt predated the marriage, how much was accrued after the marriage, and for what reasons? 
  • Did one partner pay off the other’s debts? 
  • Who gets the house? 
  • How are the retirement accounts split? 
  • What if one spouse makes significantly more money than the other?

Some of these questions are easy to answer based on the divorce laws in UT, but others can be a matter of opinion.

That’s why getting knowledgeable divorce lawyers in Salt Lake City, Utah, with legal experience in family law matters.

Our law firm is located in Sandy, less than 30 minutes South of downtown Salt Lake City
