Re: Divorce without a lawyer

I don'r recommend doing your own divorce, especially if there is substantial property or children involved. You may end up hiring an attorney later to fix problems. There are do it yourself books and kits on the market. Buy one specifically for the state you are living in. Contact your local Bar association and ask if there are attorneys that will assist you for a small fee or pro bono if you have no money. If you qualify, there may be legal aid organizations who will do the divorce for you. Good luck.
