Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get a divorce in Tulsa?
In Tulsa, the timeline depends on whether you have minor children. For uncontested divorces without children, the mandatory waiting period is only 10 days. If minor children are involved, Oklahoma law (Title 43) requires a 90-day waiting period, though this can sometimes be waived in extreme circumstances or with counseling. Our attorneys have navigated thousands of filings in the Tulsa County District Court, ensuring all procedural deadlines are met to avoid unnecessary delays.
Is Oklahoma a 50/50 custody state in 2026?
Yes. As of 2026, Oklahoma law (following SB 1708) establishes a rebuttable presumption that joint legal and physical custody is in the child's best interest. This means the court starts with a 50/50 time-sharing goal unless one parent provides a "preponderance of evidence" showing that shared custody would be detrimental to the child. Boeheim Freeman Law stays at the forefront of these 2026 legislative shifts to ensure our clients' parental rights are protected under the new presumption standards.
What is the "75-Mile Rule" for parents in Tulsa?
Under Oklahoma's relocation statute, a custodial parent must provide formal written notice at least 60 days before moving a child's residence more than 75 miles. In Tulsa, even a move to Oklahoma City or across state lines triggers this rule. If the non-relocating parent objects within 30 days, a "best interests" hearing is required. We frequently represent parents in Tulsa County relocation disputes, helping families navigate the strict notice requirements and "good faith" evidence needed for court.
How are assets divided in a Tulsa divorce?
Oklahoma is an equitable distribution state, not a community property state. This means the court divides marital property "fairly and justly," which is not always a perfect 50/50 split. The court only divides "marital property" (assets acquired during the marriage), while "separate property" usually remains with the original owner. Boeheim Freeman Law specializes in complex asset division for Tulsa business owners, ensuring that valuations for local real estate and professional practices are handled accurately.
What are the residency requirements to file in Tulsa County?
To file for divorce in Tulsa, at least one spouse must have been an actual resident of Oklahoma for six months immediately preceding the filing. Additionally, you must have lived in Tulsa County for at least 30 days before submitting your petition to the District Court. Based in the heart of Tulsa, we ensure your filing meets all jurisdictional requirements to prevent your case from being dismissed on technicalities.
