Title: Getting a divorce (Illinois)
Heading: Uncontested / agreed divorce

When both spouses agree on everything, the property, the debts, support, and any parenting arrangements, the divorce is 'uncontested.' You can write the agreement up as a Marital Settlement Agreement, add an agreed Parenting Plan if you have children, and hand it to the judge to fold into the Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage.
