Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about family law.

How is child custody determined in Utah?

In Utah, child custody decisions are based on the best interests of the child. Factors considered include the child's relationship with each parent, each parent's ability to care for the child, the child's adjustment to home and community, and the willingness of each parent to foster a relationship between the child and the other parent.

How is property divided in a divorce?

Utah follows the principle of equitable distribution, which means marital property is divided fairly but not necessarily equally. Factors considered include the length of the marriage, each spouse's economic circumstances, contributions to the marriage, and other relevant factors.

How long does a divorce take in Utah?

In Utah, there is a mandatory 30-day waiting period after filing before a divorce can be finalized. Uncontested divorces may be completed within a few months, while contested divorces involving complex issues can take a year or longer to resolve.
