How to get a divorce without going through the court?

My husband and I have been together for 3 years, but have only been married for 7 months. We have come to the mutual decision to get a divorce. We have no money to split, and we have openly agreed to have joint custody of our son. We have no idea how to go about getting this taken care of, and we really don't want to have to go to court to get it done. Is there any way that we can just go to fill out a simple form and get divorced without any kind of hassle with court?|||Actually there is.





You can hire lawyers to draw up and handle all of the paperwork for you two. You and your husband sign it and give the lawyer any pertinent information (they will need at least income information for child support). Then the lawyers show up in court to represent each of you and if the judge approves all of the paperwork, everything will be signed by the court.





Of course it's MUCH cheaper if one of you petitions, both of you fill out the paperwork, the petitioner has the other party served and they sign and return the forms. I think that only requires one final court appearance.|||im sorry to tell you u will still have to go to a hearing for the divorce|||No. Marriage is a civil contract. The only way to cancel it is through the court.|||Legally married = law


Law = court|||You're divorced when the judge signs the papers. The judge won't sign the papers until you go to court. It's not possible to get divorced without going to court.

How much is a cheap do-it-yourself divorce in Riverside County, California?

My friend and spouse have decided to get a divorce. They will be doing it themselves as there is no disagreement about how to divide the property and no children. Does anyone know approximately how much this will cost them?|||I got a divorce in Riverside County, but when I did it in September 2005, I only paid about 300 dollars total. Only because I was filing an annulment type divorce, no property or children werre involved. Prices to file a divorce in the Riverside County Family Law courts are always rising. By now, I'm guessing you might have to pay between 400 and 600 dollars. It depends on what your friend and spouse decide to file.





Go to the Riverside County Family Law court website:


http://www.riverside.courts.ca.gov/famil鈥?/a>





Click on "Forms/Fees"


Click on "Fee Schedule"





This will give you exact and current amounts of what it takes to file on your own, without any lawyers. The fee schedule has a fee pricing for each piece of paperwork you decide to file, like with property and with children.





If they have questions or need help, its always best to go down to the court house and ask someone for help. At the court house they even have a do-it-yourself center. It costs money to print pages and it also costs money to park at the court house.


(The address: 4175 Main Street, off Market and 12th)
