I think Yogia Berra would have said it like this, "There will be no problem with this online divorce papers until there is a problem." You each should get an attorney. You could probably find an attorney to help you with an uncontested divorce for about $700.00 to $1,000.00 in attorney fees. The filing fee will be $150.00. There will be a fee for $25.00 to motion the court for a final hearing. In cost your looking at maybe $175.00 to $300.00. If this is really uncontested the most money that should be spent on your case is $2,500.00 split between the two of you. Just a guess.
