"The Divorce" is a legal process that ends a marriage, allowing both partners to separate and live independently. It involves various steps, including filing a petition, negotiating terms, and obtaining a court decree. The process can address issues such as property division, child custody, and spousal support. Divorce laws vary by location, but generally, couples can choose between contested and uncontested divorces. In a contested divorce, both parties disagree on one or more issues, while in an uncontested divorce, they reach an agreement. Mediation and legal representation are often used to facilitate the process and ensure fair outcomes for both parties.
