Divorcesource.com has thousands of pages of free information. Knowledge is power when it comes to a successful divorce. The information we have available to you will not only get you the answers you need, but it will help you discover questions you never new you had. Do yourself a favor and become "divorce smart".
Starting Your Divorce
Depending on whether your divorce is contested or uncontested will determine what options you will have. Each state has unique divorce laws, which means your decisions, the filing procedure and the divorce paperwork may vary from state-to-state.
Stopping Your Divorce
Your marital situation is not as unique as you may think. Many couples face the same problems in their relationship that you are experiencing, which is why it is easier than you may think to fix. You just need the advice from experts who have the experience. No marriage, especially yours, is hopeless. The mutual love and companionship you and your spouse once shared can be revived.
Do-it-Yourself Divorce
Divorce can be an emotional and stressful experience. Whether you plan on hiring a lawyer or not, eventually your divorce process will begin with completing and filing the appropriate state specific divorce forms with the family law department of the county court house. If you are in an uncontested divorce situation, filing your own divorce is certainly a viable option for you. Doing your own divorce will save you quite a bit in lawyer fees and you and your spouse will have complete control of your own divorce. If you do decide to take this "do it yourself" route, you are not alone. Thousands of people each year throughout the U.S. file their own divorce successfully without hiring a divorce lawyer (We have heard that over 50% of uncontested divorces filed in New York City are without a divorce lawyer).
Seek Support
Divorce can be a very difficult time emotional and financially, so seeking out support options early is a very wise decision. Most people turn to close friends, family and local support groups. Keep in mind if you have children, often times schools have programs that can help children better understand what they are experiencing.
