Uncontested Divorce with Children in Louisiana
When children are involved, the paperwork grows — a parenting plan, custody terms, and a child-support worksheet. SimpleDivorce prepares all of it alongside your uncontested divorce so your agreement is complete and court-ready. In Louisiana, about 180 days minimum for couples without minor children (365 days with minor children); most uncontested cases finalize shortly after the separation period is satisfied and paperwork is filed.
