There is a 10-day waiting period if you both agree on the divorce. 

90 days is only involved when there are children of the marriage. (43 OK Stat § 107.1(A))

Understood. Will your spouse agree to the divorce?

Are there any special rules around asset divisions that I need to be aware of? We are in agreement on the split.

I just want to make sure a court down the road can't reopen and say well you have to split this 50/50.

Charlie

Charlie

No, as long as you both agree the judge will accept how you distribute assets amongst yourself. As long as you address all assets in the settlement agreement, the divorce would not be re-opened.

Ok so If i get the attached notorized and filed at the courthouse it will finalize 10 days later?

Charlie

Charlie

Yes.

Perfect. I think that is all I need.
