Divorce
Active cooperation by the spouses in settling a divorce is the most important factor in avoiding lingering post-divorce problems amongst each other, friends, children and other family members, and a way to resolve it in the most fair and reasonable terms.

If your divorce is to be contested and the issues cannot be resolved then the services of an attorney should probably be attained. For more information on contested divorces, click here.

If your divorce is uncontested, meaning both people are in agreement on all the issues including custody (if you have children) and asset/income distribution, and you're satisfied that your spouse is fully disclosing all his/her assets/income, then your divorce can be handled online by LegalZoom, (the company co-founded by attorney Robert Shapiro) without the need for pricey attorneys and potentially unpredictable court settlements. This process can be completed in three steps...

	Answer four simple questions:
	Answer four simple questions to make sure that an uncontested divorce is right for you. If you can't find your spouse or can't agree on the basic terms of separation, you probably need an attorney. In that case, LegalZoom will help you find an affordable attorney in your area.
	LegalZoom Prepares your Application:
	Once LegalZoom has received your initial information, they will send you a more detailed questionnaire via e-mail. Their experience has shown that customers prefer to answer these questions off-line. It’s easy to complete, but you can take as much time as you’d like since there is no time limit. LegalZoom is much more than an online software program. Their experienced team is there to help, and they review the answers you provide for completeness, spelling and other mistakes before preparing your divorce documents.
	Final Wrap-Up:
	You will receive all of your legal papers by mail in about 7-14 business days once you submit your detailed questionnaire. In addition, LegalZoom will provide you with easy-to-follow instructions on how to submit the paperwork for filing. Oftentimes, you may never need to appear before a judge! Learn More >>
