What's commonly called a divorce is referred to as a dissolution within the legal system. Missouri does not require that one party be at "fault, " only that the marriage be irretrievably broken. However, conduct during the marriage (affairs, abuse, etc.) may be taken into consideration by the Court when dividing marital assets. Within the dissolution, all assets and debts must be disposed of between the parties.
Even if you and your spouse agree on every term of your dissolution that doesn't mean that an attorney is not necessary. Each party should have an attorney draft or review documents to ensure all documents are in proper form and properly convey the parties' intentions. All Courts have specific rules that must be adhered to. If your documents don't conform to a Court's rules, it may not be accepted for filing.
