consent orders
Consent orders are formal legal agreements between parties, approved and issued by a court, that settle disputes without a trial. Both sides agree on specific terms—such as financial arrangements, custody arrangements, or other obligations—and the court incorporates these terms into an official order. Once approved, the order is legally binding, ensuring both parties follow through with what they've agreed upon. Consent orders help resolve issues efficiently while providing legal certainty and enforceability for the agreed-upon arrangements.
