Support Through Your Entire Divorce
If your spouse has started a divorce with us, we can help you too! Our mission is to help both spouses understand the divorce process, stay on track, play fair, and keep your divorce kinder and cheaper than "lawyering up".
The Petition
Divorces start with a petition. You may have received one from us by email or mail. To start the mandatory waiting period for you divorce you need to acknowledge that you received the petition.
Acknowledging does not mean you agree with the petition!
After you acknowledge the petition you can decide if:
- You want to file a response
- You want to proceed to financial disclosures
Want our help with these steps? Learn more here
Decide if you will file a Response
(You're likely here)
- Decide you disagree and want to file a Response (we can help!)
- Decide to move forward and file a Financial Disclosures (we can help!)
Do you have other questions? We offer connections to legal experts. Scheduling a 30-minute session with an attorney may help you better understand your options.
Complete Financial Disclosures
Most states require both parties to complete an overview of finances and exchange it with their spouse. This includes:
- Incomes
- Deductions
- Assets
- Debts
Want help? We got you.
