# Uncontested Divorce in Flagler County, Florida (2026 Guide)
FloridaDivorce.law handles a flat-fee $750 uncontested divorce for Flagler County residents, 100% remote, with your documents attorney-prepared and reviewed before anything is filed. You and your spouse must agree the marriage is irretrievably broken under Fla. Stat. §61.052. The Flagler County court filing fee is $400 and is paid separately. No office visit is ever required.
Does Your Flagler County Divorce Qualify as Uncontested?
Your divorce is uncontested when you and your spouse agree on every issue, including property, debts, and any matters involving your children. An uncontested case is not about how much you own or whether you have kids; it is about agreement. If the two of you have settled how everything will be divided and both are willing to sign, your case very likely qualifies, and that is the path that lets us deliver a clean, predictable, flat-fee result.
| Your situation | Likely uncontested? |
|---|---|
| No minor children and no shared property or debts | Yes, the most straightforward path |
| Minor children or shared property, but you both fully agree on every term | Yes, with a parenting plan and settlement agreement |
| Your spouse is non-responsive or cannot be located | Maybe, but it requires a different service and notice process |
| You actively disagree on support, time-sharing, or property | No, this is a contested matter |
In my experience, most Flagler County couples who tell me they are still fighting are actually closer to full agreement than they realize, and a short, honest conversation about the few remaining items often turns a feared courtroom battle into a quiet, paperwork-only uncontested filing.
How Much Does an Uncontested Divorce Cost in Flagler County?
You should expect three or four predictable costs: the court filing fee, service of process if needed, a short parenting course if you have minor children, and the attorney fee. Our attorney fee is a flat $750, so you know your full cost up front with no surprise billing.
| Cost | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Court filing fee (petitioner) | $400 | Paid to the Flagler Clerk of the Circuit Court |
| Service of process | Varies | Only if your spouse will not sign a waiver |
| Parenting course (if minor children) | Around $20 to $40 | Required online course for parents |
| Flat-fee attorney (FloridaDivorce.law) | $750 | Same price with or without children |
What Are the Residency Requirements to File for Divorce in Flagler County?
At least one spouse must have lived in Florida for at least six months before filing. This requirement comes from Fla. Stat. §61.021, and it applies to every dissolution of marriage in the state, including yours in Flagler County. You do not both need to be Florida residents, and you do not need to have lived in Flagler County for any particular length of time; the six-month residency is statewide. We confirm this is satisfied before we ever prepare your petition.
What if I just moved to Flagler County?
Your clock runs on Florida residency, not Flagler County residency. If you recently moved here from another part of Florida and have been a Florida resident for at least six months, you meet the Fla. Stat. §61.021 requirement and can file in Flagler County. If you just arrived in Florida from another state, you generally need to wait until you have been a Florida resident for six months before filing.
How Do You File for an Uncontested Divorce in Flagler County? (Step-by-Step)
Filing follows a clear sequence, and we handle the preparation and e-filing for you so you do not have to learn the court system yourself.
What Forms Do You Need for an Uncontested Divorce in Flagler County?
You need a specific set of Florida Supreme Court approved family law forms, and the exact combination depends on whether you have children and which dissolution path fits your case. The forms below are the backbone of nearly every uncontested filing in Flagler County.
| Form number | Form name | When required |
|---|---|---|
| Form 12.901(a) | Petition for Simplified Dissolution of Marriage | Both spouses agree, no minor children, and both waive certain rights |
| Form 12.901(b)(1)/(b)(2) | Petition for Dissolution of Marriage (with or without dependent children) | Standard uncontested cases |
| Form 12.902 series | Financial Affidavit and disclosure / waiver | Mandatory disclosure under Rule 12.285 |
| Form 12.913 | Service-related documents | When formal service or a waiver of service is needed |
| Form 12.990 | Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage | Entered by the court to finalize the divorce |
You can review the official forms and instructions at flcourts.gov. We prepare the correct version of each one for your situation, so you never have to guess which form applies.

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take in Flagler County?
Most uncontested Flagler County divorces finish within a few weeks to a couple of months, depending on how quickly documents are signed and how the court schedules review. Court timing varies by county, so the range below is a realistic estimate rather than a guarantee.
| Stage | Typical timing |
|---|---|
| Document preparation | A few days to about a week |
| Filing through myflcourtaccess.com | Same day once documents are signed |
| 20-day waiting period (Fla. Stat. §61.19) | At least 20 days after filing |
| Final hearing or court review | Scheduled per the court's calendar |
| Total realistic range | Roughly four to eight weeks in many cases |
What Happens at the Final Hearing for an Uncontested Divorce in Flagler County?
At the final hearing, the judge confirms that the residency and grounds are met, that your agreement is complete and voluntary, and then signs your final judgment. Uncontested final hearings are short and routine; the judge is verifying the paperwork, not relitigating your marriage. If you have minor children, the court reviews the parenting plan and any child support figures calculated under Fla. Stat. §61.30. If you divided property and debts, the judgment reflects the equitable distribution you agreed to under Fla. Stat. §61.075.
Can the final hearing be waived in Flagler County?
In many simplified and fully agreed cases, the court can finalize on the documents or with a very brief appearance, and some matters proceed without a traditional in-person hearing. Whether an appearance is needed depends on the judge and the specifics of your case. Because we prepare and review everything before filing, your case arrives at the court in clean shape, which is exactly what keeps the final step quick.

Significant assets, but you agree?

How agreed asset division worksThis isn't the right service if…
- your spouse won't sign, or you're still negotiating
- there is domestic violence, coercion, or fear
- you need discovery, an injunction, or emergency relief
- you disagree about parenting, support, alimony, property, or debt
- you want one attorney to represent both spouses
