Do-It-Yourself Divorce Legal Assistance
DIVORCE COACHING
This service is designed for the do-it-yourselfer who wants to maintain control, decision-making and responsibility for all decisions made in the course of the divorce and who wishes to settle out of court. As attorneys, we recommend that you not do it yourself. However, we realize that many divorces occur without any attorney representation or attorney assistance. And many more individuals choose to educate themselves. If you choose to do it yourself, at least get some legal assistance.
If you wish to handle your own non-litigated divorce but wish to have attorney services, divorce coaching may be for you.
The scope of the services are specified in detail and agreed to by you and the attorney up front. No retainer fee is required. Hourly fees are charged by the attorney for services performed under the agreement.
