Unless your divorce is uncontested where you and your spouse agree to all the issues, such alimony, property division, asset division, and so on, then chances are you will have to hire a lawyer. Some will still hire a lawyer even though their case is uncontested for consultation, and perhaps to handle some of the paperwork.

While this is the ideal scenario, it’s not realistic in some cases where a lot of hostility exists and the parties have no chance on settling the issues themselves. Therefore, both sides hire divorce lawyers and settle it in court in front of a judge. In an effort to save money, some will try to find cheap divorce lawyers.

Divorce is normally associated with a lot of drama, as couples fight custody of their children, as well as their properties and belongings accumulated while they were together. Not to mention, a nasty divorce can run both parties to the ground when they cannot agree to a settlement that satisfies them both, which forces them to keep paying for their lawyers and commit even more time for their court appearances. As a result, they endure a miserable divorce and begin life anew with empty bank accounts.

However, when couples separate amicably and file for an uncontested divorce, they will not have to endure the difficulties experienced during a bad divorce.

Two of the best of this type of online divorce resources are Legal Zoom and Complete Case.

It helps to understand what we are talking about when we use terms like cheap uncontested divorce or no contest divorce. When both of you agree that there will be no challenge to the divorce and that you will cooperate with the process, that is an uncontested divorce.  If one of the marriage partners fights the divorce and wants to take it to court to try to stop it from happening, that is a contested divorce.

one person lives in texas.
the other in Minnesota… they got married in Texas.

Can he just go to the courthouse in MN and file for a divorce to keep it cheap and quick? How much would that cost?? Both agree on divorce. no children or shared things..

do online divorces actually work or are they a run for your money?

Is there such a thing as a cheap divorce? With the current trend in most divorce proceedings these days, the correct term will have to be cheaper divorce. No matter what other people may say, there really is no such thing as going through such a process for free. The mere fact that a person will try to move to another domicile, or consulting the services of an attorney, or even ordering a do-it-yourself (DIY) divorce kit online all constitute to spending more money than usual in an effort to gain legal emancipation from a spouse. But there are ways on how to get cheap divorce, or rather cheaper divorce by following some of these steps.

1. Always, always, always ask for legal counseling – even if you intend to do most of the work or present your case at the divorce courts yourself. Ask your potential attorney if his or her company has un-bundling divorce services (where you can pick and choose the exact services you want to pay for only); pre-paid legal services (wherein you pay for the attorney’s full services but on a monthly rate only); or pro-bono services (free legal counseling, usually on grounds of bankruptcy.) In any event, a qualified lawyer will make this process go much faster as opposed to you simply guessing as to what you should be doing next. The rule of thumb for most divorce cases is this: the faster the process goes – the less money both parties will spend.
