Arkansas Divorce Settlement Agreement: What Is It?
An Arkansas Divorce Settlement Agreement is used during a divorce and it aims to document in writing any agreements formed between two spouses which outlines the responsibilities and obligations that each party makes. These responsibilities and obligations are legally enforced and both parties must comply with them if they are passed through court.
Alternate Names:
- Arkansas Marital Settlement Agreement;
- Arkansas Divorce Agreement.
Such agreements usually concern issues such as:
- Parental rights which may include information about the custody of a child and any details concerning child support;
- If alimony is an option that you have agreed, details of this will also need to be documented;
- Any assets including properties and vehicles that were purchased when the two parties were in marriage may need to be shared out equally (or as agreed by both parties) and details of this need to be included in the settlement agreement.
To ensure this process is carried out properly and fairly, both parties will need to submit as much proof as possible concerning their financial situation. It must reflect the overall, total income that each party receives on a monthly basis.
