Generally if you file a written stipulated divorce agreement the judge will follow it, but to make sure I would hire a separate attorney.

Do I have to file for divorce in NJ if I just moved to DE September 23, 2014?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson

You have to look at the residency requirements for Delaware.  In New jersey - to fle for divorce in NJ you have to live here for a year.  If it is similar in Delaware, you can wait until you've been there a year and then file in Delaware.

For an ncontested divorce, what happens if I do not file a pettition response?

Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
Two things: 1) Generally, a judge will accept any terms that the parties believe are fair. 2) There are two ways a case can proceed if you don't file a Response: a) Default - this means that your wife would complete the divorce without your involvement, including attending a brief hearing in several weeks to have the judge enter the divorce based on the terms listed in the Petition; or b) Consent - this means that you and your wife both sign final divorce papers and submit them to the judge to sign and finalize the case (no hearing). Having a case go by default could affect your rights going forward; if you have reached full agreements, I would recommend submitting a Consent Decree (you can do this even if you haven't filed a Response, but you will still have to pay the filing fee for the Response)
