Default divorce can be a quick way to get in and out of the divorce court. As a Boise Divorce Attorney I regularly file divorce complaints where the party on the other side fails to respond. With a default divorce you get to take everything that you asked for because the other party did not make an effort to contest anything you put forward.
One important consideration when filing a divorce complaint where child custody will be determined is to always include child support worksheets and income verification when you file the complaint. If a divorce or child custody is contested you can always add those documents at a later point and often the judge will request them. If, however, you file for divorce and you take by default and you have not filed child support worksheets or income verifications, some judges will not allow you to set child support. If that is the case you must return to court and ask for child support to be set. You will not be barred from setting child support, you just will be required to take an additional step. Some judges will allow you, upon default, to set child support, but as a Boise Divorce Attorney I think the best route is to always have the child support worksheets and income verifications in the file to begin with.
