Marriage is hard enough when it works.

For many marriages, people come to the conclusion that they just can’t stay together. Most of the time it takes them a while to come to the decision to divorce as it is not an easy or simple decision. Once the decision has been made, often the first thing they do is contact a divorce attorney. People then find out how much it costs to divorce in the state of California and their jaws drop. It is expensive to get a divorce in California!

The average cost of a divorce in California is $10,000 to $20,000!

Many people spend way more.

So you want to get a divorce, but you don’t have the money to hire an attorney.
Now what?

People in this situation most often decide to go it alone and represent themselves. This is called ‘in propia persona’ or ‘in pro per’ for short. People wanting to do it on their own look around and they find the ‘online divorce for $137’ options available out there, and they think

‘You bet! I’ll spend $137 to get my divorce done online’.

There’s a big problem with these offers, however.
While that may seem like a great deal, these options are most often not at all effective when your divorce is contested, meaning you and your spouse don’t agree on issues, or if you need a protective order, or if you have property and don’t agree on the division of it, or you have children and need child support and so on and so on. Additionally, you are repeatedly asked to pay additional costs to maintain access through your case.

All these elements add complexity to your divorce that are simply not addressed in the low-cost options. These options are often only effective for people who have no property together, no children, no need of child support or spousal support or custody orders. Basically, people who completely agree on everything and don’t own anything to split, that’s it. Any other situation will not be covered by those options, if they agree to work with you at all.
