Who is this for?
The DIY Divorce Kit is generally intended for people who expect to handle an uncontested divorce without attorney representation — spouses who broadly agree on how to end the marriage and simply need the paperwork organized, explained, and tracked. It is an organizational and educational product, not a substitute for individualized legal advice.
- Both spouses generally agree on the outcome
- You are comfortable filling out forms carefully
- You want to understand each step before you file
- You want to keep costs predictable
