DYI Divorce
DYI Divorce is very popular in the United States. The divorce
rate in the United States is rising at an alarming pace. With
the soaring rates of lawyers and the prestigious law firms,
getting a divorce has become a fairly expensive business. DYI
Divorce is a way out for people who don't have the time and the
necessary financial standing to file a normal divorce in court.
For a DYI Divorce, you and your spouse should essentially agree
that you both wish to end your marriage and go your separate
ways in peace. Only when you feel that you and your spouse can
cooperate enough to come to some form of fair agreement,
regarding the division of all your property and bills, you can
proceed to file a DYI Divorce. Before filing a DYI Divorce, you
must feel certain that you and your spouse can reach a fair and
reasonable agreement about custody of child, child visitation,
and child support.
Before you file a DYI Divorce, you should be able to firmly
state your wishes to your spouse and not be intimidated by him
or her. If your marriage has not been totally free of spouse or
child abuse, you can't go for a DYI Divorce. And if you or your
spouse is not in active military service, you can definitely
file a DYI Divorce. But you cannot file a Divorce, if there are
any previous legal proceedings that have been instituted for a
divorce, legal separation, child custody, or domestic violence
between you and your spouse.
To settle your DYI divorce, either you or your spouse will have
to file a petition with the court. A petition is a legal
document set out in numbered paragraphs. The statements in the
paragraph are called allegations or averments. They are a must
for DYI Divorce. These DYI Divorce petitions give the court
jurisdiction over you, your spouse, your children, your property
and your divorce.
