Carol Forsloff — Want to ditch your mate and step our smartly single? Time was when it took lots of time, effort, and wrangling with attorneys about whether to divorce and who might get what. But with the advent of the Internet, divorce has become much simpler than it used to be, so that people can now file online, something that has become commonplace.
Texas just announced its own service, after following a number of other states who have had the paperwork and filing instructions all set up. And business must be booming because there are helping organizations who can help walk an individual through the process. Despite the fact that Texas considers itself a conservative, family-oriented, values-centered state, it is now going full tilt to make the online filing for divorce an up-to-date process, mirroring other states across the country.
In fact some experts say that calling it quits online is becoming commonplace. Stepdivorce will aid the Oregon resident through a three-step process to completing the necessary paperwork for filing. In fact the group advertises that you can have all your forms in just one hour. They say the process can work in divorces with or without children, and the process features several choose-for-yourself solutions that include negotiations, custody tracker, divorce organizer, and name change, among other services. What does it cost? This group offers their services for two monthly installment payments of $157.
But there is competition for online divorce services. Another group with the easy-to-remember moniker, My Divorce Papers, will file a divorce for someone in Oregon in just an hour. Turns out this quick service seems to be an upfront hook for those who want to get out of that proverbial Dodge with all they can get before being caught by some errant spouse.
The services are so plentiful to help a couple file for divorce that consumer experts have actually ranked them. One might first want to know whether or not it's a good idea in the first place, and many of those attempting to answer the question caution consumers to look carefully at the offerings, fees, and whether or not legal advice is given when an individual is not qualified to offer that advice. But these same computer experts tell us that because 95% of divorces are uncontested, it can be a cost-saving move.
Top Consumer Services gives these three major points to assess when selecting an online filing service:
Credibility. Is the website professional? Have the online divorce forms been prepared by individuals with a legal background?
Information Provided. Is helpful information provided online to guide you through the divorce process? Can you easily contact customer service representatives if you have questions regarding your online divorce forms?
Guarantee. Does the website ensure your online divorce forms will meet legal standards? Can you get a refund if you are not satisfied with the service?
