# Uncontested Divorce in Seminole County, Florida (2026 Guide)

FloridaDivorce.law handles a flat-fee $750 uncontested divorce for Seminole County residents, fully remote, with your documents attorney-prepared and reviewed before they are ever filed. You pay the separate $408 court filing fee directly to the clerk. Under Fla. Stat. §61.052, your only required ground is that the marriage is irretrievably broken. No office visits. No surprise billing.

Does Your Seminole County Divorce Qualify as Uncontested?

Your divorce qualifies as uncontested when you and your spouse agree on every issue, including property, debts, and any parenting arrangements. Agreement is the single factor that decides whether your case moves quickly or turns into a fight. Most Seminole County couples who have already decided the marriage is over fall into this category, even when they own a home or share children.

In my experience, the couples who think they are too complicated for an uncontested divorce are usually wrong. Owning a house in Altamonte Springs or splitting a retirement account does not make your case contested. What matters is whether the two of you agree on how to divide those things.

How Much Does an Uncontested Divorce Cost in Seminole County?

The total cost of an uncontested divorce in Seminole County is the flat attorney fee plus a few fixed court costs you would pay no matter who prepares your documents. There are no hourly charges and no open-ended billing with a flat-fee firm. Here is the full breakdown.

The $750 covers document preparation, attorney review, filing with the clerk, and guidance through to your final judgment. The fee is the same whether or not you have minor children, though cases with children add a parenting plan, a child support guidelines worksheet, and a UCCJEA affidavit at no extra charge.

What Are the Residency Requirements to File for Divorce in Seminole County?

At least one spouse must have lived in Florida for six months before you file. This rule comes from Fla. Stat. §61.021, and the court cannot grant your divorce without it. You prove residency with a Florida driver's license, a voter registration card, or the sworn testimony of a corroborating witness. You file in Seminole County when either spouse currently resides here.

What if I just moved to Seminole County?

You can still file in Florida as long as one spouse has met the six-month statewide residency requirement under Fla. Stat. §61.021. The six months counts your time anywhere in Florida, not only your time in Seminole County. If you recently moved from another state, you generally must wait until you or your spouse reaches the six-month mark before the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit can hear your case.

How Do You File for an Uncontested Divorce in Seminole County? (Step-by-Step)

You file an uncontested divorce in Seminole County by preparing the petition, submitting it electronically to the clerk, and completing the required waiting period before final judgment. The process follows the same statewide rules, filed through the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit.

If you ever have questions about which forms apply to your situation, you can reach the Seminole Clerk of the Circuit Court at (407) 665-4330.

What Forms Do You Need for an Uncontested Divorce in Seminole County?

You need the dissolution petition, financial disclosure documents, proof of service or a waiver, and the final judgment form. Florida uses standardized family law forms statewide, so the same forms apply in Seminole County as everywhere else in the state.

You can review the current official versions of these forms at flcourts.gov. Florida Family Law Rule of Procedure 12.285 governs the mandatory financial disclosure both spouses must complete, and property division for any marital assets falls under Fla. Stat. §61.075.

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take in Seminole County?

Most uncontested divorces in Seminole County finalize within a few weeks once both spouses are cooperating and the paperwork is complete. The single fixed delay is the statutory 20-day waiting period. Court scheduling timing varies by county and by judicial division, so the realistic range is a window, not a guarantee.

The 20-day waiting period under Fla. Stat. §61.19 is the general rule, and a judge may enter judgment sooner for good cause in limited circumstances. Court availability in the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit ultimately controls your final date.

What Happens at the Final Hearing for an Uncontested Divorce in Seminole County?

At the final hearing, the judge confirms that your paperwork is complete, that the marriage is irretrievably broken under Fla. Stat. §61.052, and that both spouses understand the agreement. The hearing is short, often only a few minutes, because there is nothing to argue. The judge then signs your final judgment, and your divorce is official.

Can the final hearing be waived in Seminole County?

In many uncontested cases, especially simplified dissolutions, at least one spouse still appears briefly so the judge can confirm the marriage is irretrievably broken. Whether a personal appearance is required depends on the type of dissolution and the practice of the assigned division within the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit.
