Divorce: Why Can't I do it Myself?

In today's electronic age, many people are tempted to handle their affairs online. In most cases, this is a great option that can save significant time and money. However, handling a divorce and other legal matters online can be extremely dangerous.

At the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart, we have seen first-hand the risks of do-it-yourself divorces. Most often, months or even years down the road one or both spouses run into tough legal situations that have result from inaccuracies the original divorce decree.

Why Work With an Attorney?

We often see clients come into our office who have encountered a legal issue arising from a so-called do-it-yourself divorce. These people are lured in, thinking they will settle their divorce matters quickly and at a low price. Unfortunately, it rarely works out that way. We help clients who have encountered problems due to the following:

  • Checking the wrong box on document
  • Vague, non-specific language
  • Discovering that divorce was not finalized
  • Legally questionable divorce forms

Any number of problems can arise when a divorce is not guided by an attorney. Our divorce lawyers have helped thousands of clients with divorce matters. We are committed to helping out clients complete their divorces accurately, and minimize potential problems in the future.

I Want a Cheap Divorce. Isn't Hiring an Attorney Expensive?

Not necessarily. A divorce can be quite economical, especially if spouses are cooperative. Negotiation may be an effective means to divorce. When a do-it-yourself divorce produces legal problems in the future, the cost of fixing them can be much higher than ever expected. By working with an attorney from the start, any divorcing couple can be assured their divorce is legally accurate.

At the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart, we understand that many clients are concerned about the cost of divorce. We work with them in an efficient manner, keeping their best interests — emotional and financial — in mind.
