At Road to Resolution, we focus on helping married couples find an amicable way through separation and divorce. There are indeed ways to avoid conflict and confrontation, and I think many individuals here in North Carolina don’t realize just how simple the process of filing for an uncontested divorce is.

In fact, I’m happy to share that the reality of an uncontested divorce is rarely as difficult or as confrontational as you might think. 

Like so many before me, I really did think my first marriage would last forever. And, when my now ex-husband and I made the difficult decision to end our marriage, it took a lot of work and legal guidance to make our way through the divorce process.

Luckily, we were able to find our way through those difficult times in an amicable and respectful manner.

It is no small task to embark on the difficult journey of divorce. For couples who have come to an impasse in their relationship, there is much to unpack—figuratively and literally. The dissolution of marriage is as complicated legally as it is emotionally. 

Divorce is many things. But pleasant, is rarely a word that comes to mind when thinking of this often unwelcome life event.
