Finding basic divorce papers online is pretty simple in many states. However, it is important to select the correct forms that apply to an individual's circumstances (with children, without children, etc). Otherwise, the petition will be rejected by the court. A trip down to the county clerk's office may be necessary to pick up forms that are not available on the web. Many service companies now offer couples a way to obtain uncontested divorce papers online. These businesses usually offer comprehensive questionnaires that a couple can fill out. Then, the divorce company puts together all the paperwork including a settlement agreement. Some of these services also facilitate legal consultations via referrals to attorneys. The completed forms are mailed to the recipients to be signed. The actual filing of the paperwork must still be done at the courthouse - an online divorce service cannot do this on the client's behalf.
