Do Couples Have to Attend an Agreed Divorce Case?
How Many Hearings Does it Conclude In?
After the prepared agreement protocol is submitted to the family courts, it is served to the couples by the court. It is a legal rule for couples to appear before the judge once, at the first hearing. After reaching an agreement on all matters and after the couples express this verbally before the judge, they do not have to go to court again. Their lawyers will follow up on the subsequent process and provide detailed information to the parties on all matters. Agreement between the couples on all matters, especially houses, cars, movable and immovable properties, alimony, child custody, and compensation, are the conditions sought for the occurrence of an agreed divorce case.
To Which Courts is the Agreement Protocol Submitted?
As long as there is no problem with the prepared divorce protocol, the case is completed in a single hearing. The inability of the couples to agree on even one issue means that the case is no longer within the scope of agreement. The divorce case does not proceed if one of the parties is absent from the hearing. To avoid such setbacks and to complete the process in a short time, it is necessary to work with a lawyer specialized in divorce cases. In our country, the courts that resolve family disputes, from engagement breakups to ending marriages, i.e., divorce cases, are the family courts. In cases handled within the scope of family law, in places where there is no family court, the primary civil courts are applied to.
