How long does a divorce take in Ohio?

An uncontested dissolution often takes two to three months. A contested divorce can take a year or more, depending on what is in dispute.

Do I have to go to court?

Not always. Many families settle custody and property through negotiation or mediation. If court is needed, we prepare you for every step.

Your first meeting is free. Tell us what is going on, and we will tell you what we would do next.
