How many times do I have to go to court?
Divorce isn’t normally associated with good news. But one bit of good news is this: with the process I used for uncontested divorce in Lake County, you only have to appear in court once – on the very last day to get it finalized.
Meeting your divorce lawyer
Meeting isn’t really necessary and just drives up costs. With the process I use, meeting before we go to court is unnecessarily. I look at it this way: you have many better things to do than meet with a lawyer. And for me to keep my fees affordable, I try not to have unnecessary meetings. If you choose a lawyer who insists on a meeting, it is highly likely that that lawyer will charge a fee commensurate with having a meeting – even if the consultation is supposedly free.
Is there a flat fee?
Yes. My flat fee is very affordable. However, it does vary based on whether or not you have kids, or house, for example. The good news is that when you pay my flat fee, you don’t have to pay any other court fees – I pay those.
How fast is an uncontested divorce?
A divorce in Lake County can take a bit over a month, or longer if you have kids and must take the parenting class (most parents are required to do so). All in all, that’s pretty fast. Normally, the greatest delay is caused by the spouses reviewing that documents. The quicker the documents are approved, the quicker I can file the case and get a court date.
