Can you really get a divorce online?
Some states allow you to file for divorce online. These states have specific requirements for online divorce filing, so check your state’s court site to see whether your state allows e-filing for divorce. If you’re unsure if your county and state allow filing a divorce online, call the clerk’s office in your county.
Can you do a separation agreement without a lawyer?
Just because it is not required does not mean you should not have one. Each spouse must enter the legal separation agreement voluntarily without duress. Both spouses sign a written agreement in the presence of a witness.
Do both parties have to agree to a legal separation?
Yes, it is mandatory. Each party must obtain independent legal advice prior to signing a separation agreement. You also cannot use the same lawyer and should not use the same law firm. If you fail to obtain advice from a lawyer, the separation agreement will be unenforceable.
