Do-It-Yourself Divorce

In 2011, the Tennessee Supreme Court approved plain-language forms for uncontested divorces without significant legal issues, known as “agreed” divorces in the new documents.

It is always wise to use an attorney when dealing with a legal matter, but the reality is that not everyone can afford an attorney.

My fees for uncontested divorces are very modest so if you need my help, please call.  You might be surprised.

If you still can’t afford an attorney, here are some helpful plain-language forms that have been approved by the Tennessee Supreme Court.
