Pennsylvania Uncontested Divorce Guide
Understand the forms, filing costs, and next steps before preparing an uncontested Pennsylvania divorce case.

Where to begin
For an uncontested divorce, confirm that your situation fits the court's requirements, identify the filing court, and verify the current forms and fees. DivorceReady helps prepare a document packet from your answers; you remain responsible for review, signatures, filing, service, and court costs.

- Court of Common Pleas
- Court filing fee

Check your county or local court for the correct filing location.
