It is strongly advised to obtain an attorney for your divorce or family court case. It is important to understand that divorce and family law cases are very complex and a great deal is on the line. Without an attorney to represent you and protect your interests, you may be at risk of losing custody of your children or become bound to an unfair financial arrangement. An attorney will guide you through the process, ensure that the divorce or family court case follows the proper legal procedure, and assist you in obtaining a positive resolution to your legal matter. If the divorce is uncontested, and the parties resolved all child custody and financial issues, the parties may fill out and submit the Uncontested Divorce Packet to the court, but even in these cases it is highly recommended that an attorney be consulted.
