Most uncontested divorce matters fit into one of these three tiers depending on whether you need review only, complete start-to-finish help, or more involved work because multiple properties are in the picture.
Review Only
$799
For clients who already have a marital settlement agreement and divorce forms drafted but want review before submission.
Start to Finish
$2499
For couples who want full uncontested divorce support from initial paperwork through filing and judgment.
Higher-Asset Divorce
$3999
For start-to-finish uncontested divorce matters where many properties are owned and the asset picture requires more extensive drafting.
These amounts are lowered depending on where you already are in the divorce process. Prices are not inclusive of Court filing fees.
For many people, divorce brings a mix of annoyance, fear, frustration, and confusion all at once. The paperwork is unfamiliar. The steps are unclear. The legal terms feel intimidating. Even when both spouses want to handle things respectfully, it can still feel overwhelming trying to figure out what to do next.
You may be wondering whether you are filling out the right forms, whether you are missing something important, or whether one mistake could delay the process. That uncertainty adds stress to an already emotional situation.
We know this process can feel heavy. That is why we focus on helping spouses move through it with more clarity, more confidence, and less unnecessary frustration. Take the anxiety out of the process and let us help you.
A narrow practice focus can make a real difference in how smoothly your matter moves. Simplified Separation is a lawfirm built specifically for uncontested divorce and judgment drafting work, which allows for a more structured and efficient client experience. We have extensive experience in drafting that allows for a smooth transition in your changing life.
This practice is limited to uncontested and agreement-based matters. That focus allows for a process built around drafting, accuracy, and follow-through rather than litigation strategy.
Your matter is not competing with trial preparation, emergency hearings, or contested motion practice in unrelated cases. That narrower scope supports a more reachable and attentive experience.
We offer flat-fee pricing on our legal services due to our ability to structure the process. Normally, family matters must be billed on an hourly basis in California, however due to our narrow focus, we can ensure a fixed cost for you.
Our work generally falls into three main categories, making it easier to understand how we can help.
For spouses who want support through the full process, from initial filing paperwork through final judgment.
For couples who already have agreed terms and need those terms properly organized into court-ready documents.
Support with custody, visitation, support, property division, debt allocation, and related language and understanding the impact of options.
Most matters involve an intake review and a focused Zoom meeting to explain the process, answer questions, and gather the information needed for drafting. More complex matters may require additional refinement, but the goal is to keep the process organized and manageable for clients.
Step 1
We learn about your situation, confirm whether the matter is a good fit, and identify what documents and information will be needed.
Step 2
We walk through the process, answer questions, and make sure both spouses understand the next steps.
Step 3
The necessary petition, response, disclosure, agreement, and judgment documents are drafted for review and signature as applicable.
Step 4
Once documents are ready, filing is coordinated so the matter can move forward in the appropriate county.
Step 5
The matter proceeds through court review until the paperwork is accepted and the case reaches judgment.
Clients should understand what this service is, what it is not, and what to expect from the process.
