Divorce is an emotionally traumatic life event.  It can feel like your whole world is crumbling around you.  But it doesn’t have to lead to the complete destruction of your life and your relationship with your former spouse and your family.  I offer non-adversarial approaches to resolving this.

Sometimes things just don't turn out like we planned. We assist with all that is required within the DIY divorce process to help make it a smooth transition for all involved.  This means both parties are agreement to divorce and the agreement to joint assets has been resolved. 

*For NY couples only or one spouse must reside in NYS and the other agree to have NYS as its jurisdiction for filing the divorce.

I am able to assist you with:

• Printing the correct and updated NY court forms required, including multiple copies needed.
• Typing the information, you give.
• Check for understandings.
• Affidavits. 
• Notary Services.
• Court Filing. 
• Process Serving.
• Mailings.

***I can only assist with general information and help check for understanding as you fill out the forms yourself or i do the typing for you. I cannot give you legal advice on your situation.  Both parties usually opt out of having legal advice or an attorney represent their interests with a DIY option.

Throughout the divorce process, if you find an impasse occurs, you can elect to have Family Law attorneys in our Network* that can assist you to resolve and keep both parties out of the courtroom. That can be a costly situation and is not always a financially viable option for some. We encourage parties to use the mediation process first if needed to divide assets.

We assist NY residents with community legal services that matter.

Our Mediation Legal Partners below will do the opting out agreement and mediation to help keep you out of court and your situation very private.
