Because of the grueling processes and procedures in having a divorce, couples that wanted to end their divorce easily and quickly tends to seeks divorce from other jurisdictions, especially including many states of the United States, that have easier and quicker processes.
There are four reasons as why couples seek to divorce in the US. First reason is that New York does not have a no-fault divorce, such as "irreconcilable differences" as a legal cause for divorce, and fault is required or a separation agreement in force for a year, such as New York State, thus requiring one year from the time the legal separation went into effect unless fault can be proven.
Second is that some jurisdictions have complex and long residency requirements as well as paperwork. Third is that many jurisdictions take a long time to issue a finalized divorce, anywhere from 3 months to a year or even several in unique circumstances.
And finally, some people are simply out to get around the financial hardship of a divorce, and get a divorce from a jurisdiction that allows fast uncontested divorces that offer little or no spousal support to the defendant. Visit the st. louis divorce attorney to learn more about this.
But aside from the US, there are also some other countries that provide quicker ways of ending a marriage, these countries include Haiti, Mexico, and The Dominican Republic.
These country’s people typically go to get an overnight/long weekend divorce, or to get a quick and relatively painless contested divorce. In Haiti in particular you can get an uncontested divorce in a weekend stay. Visit the st. louis divorce attorney for information about divorce.
Getting a contested divorce in another country is not likely to achieve the goals of the spouse requesting it, and is possible to even create a larger problem than before. An uncontested divorce is likely to be upheld in a court of law however, regardless of the general validity of contested divorces from these countries.
While a "quick" contested divorce is likely if challenged to be declared invalid, it is, by case law, not considered bigamy if you remarry as long as the obtainer believed the divorce to be valid. Learn more about contested divorce with the st. louis divorce attorney.
In the case of disputed custody of children, almost all lawyers would strongly advise you stay to the jurisdiction applicable to the dispute, i.e. the country or state of you or your spouse's residence.
