Uncontested Divorce with Children in Rhode Island
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 Rhode Island, most uncontested cases finalize about 5 to 6 months after filing, reflecting the nominal hearing at roughly 75 days followed by the mandatory 90-day nisi period before final judgment.
