Bertinelli, 47, and Van Halen, 52, had been married for 25 years.
"The parties have resolved all their issues amicably in mediation," say the
documents, released on Friday. "Neither spouse shall take unfair advantage
of the other spouse."
The former couple have one son, Wolfgang, 16, who is touring with his dad's
reunited band, Van Halen.
Bertinelli and Van Halen -- the ultimate good girl-bad boy pairing of the
'80s -- had been separated and living apart since October 2001. Bertinelli
filed for divorcein December 2005.
The two met in 1980, when the One Day at a Time actress went backstage after
a Van Halen concert in Shreveport, La.
Bertinelli, who recently went public about her weight battle, is a
spokeswoman for Jenny Craig and is writing a memoir called Losing It: And
Gaining My Life Back One Pound at a Time.
