Can You Get a Divorce Without Going to Court in Illinois?

No, you cannot file for divorce in Illinois without going to court. The courts must review and approve divorce requests even when the parties agree. Even with an uncontested divorce in Illinois, at least one spouse must attend a brief court hearing before a judge finalizes the dissolution of the marriage. 

This process tends to be quicker and less contentious than contested divorces that require extensive litigation.

Does It Matter Who Files for Divorce First in Illinois?
