What is the difference between a contested and uncontested divorce?

A contested divorce is one in which the parties cannot agree either about the divorce or the terms of the divorce, such as the division of assets, allocation of debts, alimony, child support, and or time-sharing. An uncontested divorce is where the parties have reached an agreement on the terms of the divorce and have entered into a marital settlement agreement.
