No, you can use these forms without a lawyer for straightforward, uncontested situations where both parties agree. All forms are attorney-reviewed and include instructions. However, if your situation involves complex assets, disputes, or domestic violence concerns, we strongly recommend consulting an attorney.
Prenuptial agreements are legal and enforceable in all 50 states, but specific requirements vary. Our forms include general provisions that work nationwide, but you should review your state's specific requirements. For agreements involving substantial assets, consider having an attorney review the document.
Each complete divorce package includes three essential documents: the Petition for Divorce (to start the divorce), the Marital Settlement Agreement (to settle property, custody, and support), and the Divorce Decree (to finalize the divorce). All forms are state-specific and attorney-reviewed. Additional procedural forms may be included as required by state law.
These forms are designed for uncontested situations where both parties agree on all terms. If you disagree on custody, property division, or support, you'll need mediation or legal representation. Consider starting with our forms and consulting an attorney if disputes arise.
Uncontested divorces typically take 3-12 months from filing to final decree, depending on your state's mandatory waiting periods and court processing times. Having all required forms completed correctly at the outset helps avoid delays. We provide state-specific filing guidance with each package.
Yes, when properly executed and filed with the court (if required in your jurisdiction), child custody agreements are legally binding. However, they can be modified later if circumstances substantially change or if both parents agree to changes. Courts always prioritize the best interests of the child.
Yes, prenuptial agreements require both parties' signatures to be valid. Both parties should ideally have independent legal counsel review the agreement (though this isn't always legally required). The agreement must be signed before marriage, typically at least 30 days before the wedding.
Yes, all forms are provided in editable Microsoft Word format so you can customize them to your specific situation. Our customer support team can answer questions about how to properly complete the forms, though we cannot provide legal advice on what terms to include.
A cohabitation agreement is a contract between unmarried partners that defines financial and property rights while living together. It doesn't provide the same legal protections as marriage (like automatic inheritance rights or spousal benefits), but it can clarify expectations and protect individual assets in case the relationship ends.
