Re: divorce decree question
Hiring one attorney is not a good idea. You should each have an attorney to explain those things that will protect your best interest. This is not the time to pinch pennys. A divorce is a very important event and should be done properly with due consideration to the long term effects.

Re: divorce decree question
You may be able to do this on your own, and you may be able to do this with one attorney, but I agree with Mr. Kronzek that there are significant risks in doing this. Other than child custody and support, unless there's a really good reason, you can't go back and change the judgment once it's entered. Good luck to both of you.
