How it works

How Divorce Liaison works

You bring the facts. Divorce Liaison organizes the process. You are not expected to know legal terminology or choose your own court forms.

The seven steps

  1. 1

    Choose your state

    Pick the state where you will file. Every kit is built for one state's rules, because forms, residency rules and waiting periods differ from state to state.

  2. 2

    Answer simple factual questions

    Tell us things you already know: where you and your spouse live, when you married, whether you have children, and what you own and owe. No legal terms needed.

  3. 3

    Create your free account and save your progress

    Your answers are saved to your account so you can stop and come back anytime.

  4. 4

    Divorce Liaison organizes your document path

    Using your answers and your state's rules, Divorce Liaison works out which documents apply to you and the order to complete them in. If your answers don't clearly point one way, your case is flagged for review rather than guessed.

  5. 5

    Select your product

    Choose the DIY Divorce Kit, the Pre-Divorce Agreements, or the Complete Package. Prices are listed on the pricing page before you start.

  6. 6

    Complete your documents

    Work through your documents step by step, with plain-language notes for the parts people most often get wrong.

  7. 7

    Receive filing guidance

    Follow the instructions for copies, signatures, filing with the court, getting papers to your spouse, and what happens after you file.

Do I need to know which forms to use?

No. You answer factual questions, and Divorce Liaison uses your state's rules to organize the documents that fit your answers. You never have to pick a legal procedure or form number yourself.

What does it cost to start?

Nothing. The account and questions are free. You pay only when you choose a product — see pricing. Court filing fees are paid separately to the court.

Is a DIY kit right for you?

Our kits are designed for uncontested divorces where both spouses broadly agree on the terms. If your case involves contested custody, hidden or complex assets, a business valuation, domestic violence, or a spouse who will not cooperate, we recommend working with a licensed attorney in your state.

Divorce Liaison is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or representation. Our kits are self-help education, organization, and document-preparation guidance only.
