Guided service

Start My Divorce

$595 flat fee

Payment plans available. Charged only after attorney review.

You're ready to file for divorce but don't know where to begin. We'll prepare your initial court documents, explain every step, and show you exactly what happens after you file.

Choose this if: Nothing is filed yet, and one of you needs to start the case.

Not for you if: You both already agree on everything (Agreed Dissolution is simpler).

What's included

  • Preparation of every document required to file for divorce in your Ohio county
  • Review of your answers for accuracy and completeness before drafting
  • Filing done for you: Mindy e-files your papers where your county allows it, or files them by mail where it doesn't
  • Instructions for setting up your county e-filing account, if your county uses one
  • Mindy requests the first attempt at serving your spouse
  • Secure portal access to every draft and final document
  • Portal messaging with Mindy about your paperwork

Not included

  • Court filing fees and service costs (paid by you directly to the court)
  • Further service attempts if the first one doesn't succeed
  • Attorney meetings or phone conferences
  • Any court appearance
  • Contested hearings, motions, discovery or negotiation with the other side
  • Cases involving minor children
