What's Included In The $2595 Flat Fee

If you and your spouse already agree on the major terms of your divorce — such as property division, support, and custody — an uncontested divorce is the simplest, most affordable path forward. Our flat-fee service ensures every legal step is handled correctly so you avoid costly mistakes or delays.

Your flat fee of $2595 includes full guidance from start to finish:

Strategy Session: We review your situation, explain your rights under California law, and outline the exact steps needed for a smooth divorce.
All Court Paperwork Prepared & Filed: We draft and file your Divorce Petition and manage every court deadline so nothing gets missed.
Service of Process & Required Disclosures: We handle service, financial disclosures, signature requirements, and any follow-up — saving you time and stress.
Marital Settlement Agreement: We draft a legally sound agreement covering custody, support, property division, and other key terms, customized to your family’s needs.
Final Judgment Submission: We prepare your complete judgment packet and submit it to the court, so your divorce can be finalized without courtroom appearances.

No hourly billing. No hidden fees. Just transparent, compassionate support from start to finish.

FAQs About Uncontested Divorce

Can my spouse refuse the divorce?

No. They can’t stop you from filing, but they can refuse to participate — which turns the case into a contested divorce. We’ll help you understand your options.

Why would a judge deny an uncontested divorce?

Usually because of missing forms, incorrect disclosures, or unclear agreements.
We prevent these issues by preparing everything correctly the first time.

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take in California?

California has a mandatory six-month cooling-off period, but your paperwork can be completed long before that. With our attorney-led support, most clients: finalize paperwork within weeks, avoid court delays, and prevent filing mistakes that set you back months

The sooner you start, the sooner your six-month timeline can begin.
