The Others Hand You a Stack of Papers, Then What?

Filing a divorce case can be tricky. When you use our service, that’s something you won’t have to worry about…because if you use our optional filing service, we take care of filing it for you. No document preparation service does that, and most lawyers charge thousands for filing an uncontested divorce.

No Court Appearance In Most Cases

Parties without children are almost never required to appear in court. If you have minor children, you will participate in two short meetings with a court employee, oftentimes virtually.

What is an "Uncontested Divorce" and Why Should You Do Your Divorce this Way?

An “uncontested divorce”, also known as a “no-conflict” divorce, is when the parties are willing, and able, to cooperate in the divorce process and come up with their own plan for dividing things up in order to save time and money and to have more say as to the outcome.

Typically, people have three options when it comes to getting an uncontested divorce:

 

  1. Hire lawyers to represent them and plan on spending thousands.
  2. Fill out all the forms themselves (there are over a dozen, more if you have children, together with pages of confusing and often conflicting instructions).
  3. Utilize the expertise of someone like Calder Family Law to draft your papers for you using terms you and your spouse provide and agree upon.

Not everybody can cooperate well enough to do an uncontested or no-conflict divorce, but for those who can, the rewards are considerable, not just in money saved, but also in time, energy, emotion, stress and more.

Here's How It Works

First, you both must want to do this amicably; and you must be willing to agree on everything. If so, simply complete and submit our easy online questionnaire along with your payment. We take Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. The questionnaire is designed to tell us what we need in order to draft your divorce documents. Your information is “ssl” secure and encrypted for your security. We will review your questionnaire and let you know if we have questions or need any additional information.

Mr. Calder, a 5 star Google-rated LOCAL divorce lawyer, then prepares your custom paperwork, personally. We don’t use law students or paralegals. We do only Colorado cases, so we are familiar with the turf, unlike the document services that operate in all 50 states.

Your completed paperwork will be emailed to you usually within 1-2 business days along with easy-to-follow instructions to guide you through signing. The document services wish you “luck” at this point and hand you a stack of papers and confusing filing instructions. Not us.

Once you and your spouse have signed the documents and completed the brief financial form required by the court, if you use our optional filing service, we have you mail them back to us, and we review them, making sure they are all accounted for and no signatures were overlooked, then WE will send them to the appropriate Colorado court for filing.

That sounds simple, but it’s not. Lots of missteps are possible when filing that can result in rejection or delay. You won’t have to worry about that with us. Your final divorce decree will be issued by the court in about 91 days without further action by you (except cases involving children who will have two short meetings with court personnel). It’s that simple.

Transparent Pricing

For couples without children, our fee is $299.* For those with children, it’s $499.* If you wish to have us file your case with the Courts for you, please add $100 plus $9 for postage and handling. There will be no other charges for your uncontested divorce unless you request revisions after the paperwork is done or ask for additional services.

*The court’s filing fee of $230 is not included.   You will pay that to the Court when the case is filed.

We Don't Take sides and Remain Neutral at all Times

Mr. Calder does not represent either party, cannot give advice to either party, and will maintain neutrality at all times. That way you can both rest assured that your uncontested divorce experience will be fair and unbiased.

How Long Will it Take?

It takes us 1-2 business days to prepare your paperwork after we get all your information. Then after you both sign and return the docs to us, we will send them on to the court. When the court receives them, a 91-day mandatory waiting period begins, per Colorado law. That time cannot be shortened. You will receive your official divorce decree in the mail a few days after the 91st day.

Are Uncontested Divorces done "Online" legal?

Yes, they are filed with the courts and processed through the courts just as any other case is.   We have done thousands of cases this way.

Is There a Gurantee?

Yes, we will prepare your documents so that they will be acceptable to the court, period. We screen your case before we ever accept your payment to make sure that your agreement terms will meet the court’s criteria. If there is a problem, we will bring it to your attention and help you rectify it. If it cannot be rectified and there is just no way to draft your paperwork in conformity with the court’s requirements, your card will not be charged in the first place.


In the unlikely event that the court rejects your agreement for a cause attributable to us, we will work with you to correct it – and if it can’t be corrected…we will give you a full refund…because we stand behind our work.
