A contested divorce in Mississippi is a divorce in which the parties cannot come to an agreement over certain issues and will have to have a court order issued. These issues may include child support, spousal support, or the division of the marital estate.Contested divorces can become expensive, especially if they involve contentious issues that require significant time and effort from both parties. This can result in one party incurring more debt than the other.When one spouse is responsible for paying all of the household expenses, it can be difficult to determine how much of this expense should be awarded to the other party during a contested divorce.In many cases, it is possible to reach an agreement on these issues with the help of an experienced family law attorney.
