Why fixed fees for legal services?
Too often, lawyers are considered the only option for legal resolution, and most lawyers charge retainers (a deposit on services) and then bill all work on the case in tenths of an hour. If your retainer is exhausted, an additional retainer is demanded or bills become due as incurred. With a flat fee, you know exactly what the cost will be – no hidden or unpredictable fees.

What is a legal document assistant and why use one?
A legal document assistant is your tour guide through divorce – they provide helpful information and prepare and process all documents required for a divorce. Our LDA’s are accessible through the “Divorce Plus” and “Divorce with Benefits” membership levels. Please note, LDA’s are not lawyers and cannot give legal advice. If you need or want legal advice, you can access experienced lawyers at this link.
How do I know what level of membership I need?
If you’re not sure which one is right for you, sign up as a free
Starter Member. You’ll get a free 15 minute strategy session with one of our experienced Hello Divorce professionals who will talk to you about where you are in the process, how complicated (or not) your divorce is and what your personal and financial goals are. From there, they will help you decide on the course of action that works for you.
How exactly do Divorce Plus and Divorce with Benefits work?
Watch our
5 minute video to get the low down.
In short, you complete a guided, online interview and then your legal document assistant takes the lead and will complete all the paperwork required to get you divorced. Throughout the process, she will coordinate service (delivery) of the documents to your spouse and ensure that everything is properly processed with the court. Divorce is a process, not an event, meaning, it doesn’t happen overnight, but rest assured, we will make it as hassle-free as possible.
What is the Divorce Navigator?
People don’t usually think of DIY as a divorce option, but it is now through our
Divorce Navigator app.
Whether your divorce is contested or not, you must complete the 20+ mandatory forms required – but why pay high attorney fees to fill out forms you can easily do on your own? The Divorce Navigator guides you through these forms with easy to understand, step by step instructions.
Additionally, if you would like attorney help for the more complicated issues or to plan your divorce strategy, we offer
access to attorneys at on-demand, transparent, flat-fees.
