I am considering divorcing an American.
We have been married for a long time and have a 10 year green card.
I have no particular desire to remain in the U.S., but if we both agree and the divorce goes smoothly, is it necessary to have a lawyer? ?
We have no children and there is no alimony or property division.
In that case, how long does it take to get divorced after filing for divorce? ? There is no instant divorce like in Japan ?
I would appreciate any information from people who have heard of such stories or have experienced divorce. Thank you very much.

Divorce is finalized six months after the divorce papers are received.

We have one child, but we didn't have a lawyer, we both went to court to file and it only took a month. This was before Corona, so it may take longer now. The documents were checked by the concierge at the court, and we were able to correct and submit them after checking them with each other, so it was a smooth process.
