How It Works

Your Path to a Fresh Start

A clear, step-by-step process designed to take you from intake to final judgment — with AI assistance and attorney oversight at every stage.

01

01

Complete Your Intake

Fill out our confidential online questionnaire. Tell us about your situation — children, assets, income, and what you're hoping to achieve.

Takes about 15 minutes. Your information is encrypted and confidential. We use it to assess your case and recommend the right plan.

02

02

Choose Your Plan

We'll recommend the Essential, Complete, or Premium plan based on your intake. You'll see exactly what's included and the flat fee before committing.

No pressure, no upsells. If your situation changes, we can adjust your plan at any time.

03

03

AI-Assisted Form Preparation

Grok AI drafts your California Judicial Council forms using your intake data. Our attorney reviews every form for accuracy and completeness.

We handle all 58+ required forms — from the initial Petition to the final Judgment. County-specific local forms are included.

04

04

Filing & Service

We coordinate filing with your county courthouse and handle service of process on your spouse. We track all deadlines and respond to any court notices.

Filing fees are paid directly to the court and are not included in our flat fee. We'll tell you exactly what to expect.

05

05

Negotiation & Agreement

For uncontested cases, we draft your Marital Settlement Agreement covering property, support, and custody. For contested cases, we negotiate on your behalf.

Our goal is always to reach a fair agreement without court intervention — saving you time, money, and stress.

06

06

Final Judgment

Once all agreements are signed and the 6-month waiting period has passed, we submit your final judgment package to the court for entry.

When the judge signs your Judgment of Dissolution, your divorce is final. We'll send you certified copies for your records.
