The process is divided into four main stages: Qualification, Document Preparation, Document Notarization, and Court Filing.1. Drafting the documents
Prequalification: Clients begin by clicking “SEE IF YOU QUALIFY” and completing a two-part questionnaire.
After completing the questionnaire and making the initial payment ($195 or 2x$99), a Divorce Portal account is created.
Clients complete a detailed Interview Questionnaire (Big Questionnaire), upload any required documents, and confirm their answers.
Additional data may be requested via email with secure submission links.
Once completed, a paralegal reviews the answers. Based on the review, the case is either accepted, conditionally accepted (more info required), or rejected.
Upon acceptance and confirmation of payment, documents are drafted.
Clients receive a secure link to review and approve each document online, with an option to leave comments for revisions.
2. Divorce documents authorization
Authorization to proceed is confirmed once the Petitioner and Respondent both:
Approve drafted documents
Sign the Attorney Services Agreement online
Complete payment for Virtual Divorce services ($88 per party or $176 total)
3. Signing & Notarizing the divorce documents
After approval, documents are locked for editing and prepared for signing.
Clients are prompted to digitally sign required forms. Signature-only documents are handled separately from those requiring notarization.
Examples of signature-only documents include the Cover Sheet, Notice of Related Cases, and Child Support Worksheet.
Remote Online Notarization (RON) is conducted via the BlueNotary platform using Zoom.
Clients are queued for appointments (no fixed time), available from 8 AM to 9 PM EST.
Identity is verified, and documents are digitally signed in front of the Notary.
Separate sessions are held for Petitioner and Respondent.
If notarization fails, it is rescheduled. A re-notarization fee of $100 may apply if the case is older than 6 months.
Notarized documents are securely stored in pCloud, along with draft and signed versions.
Required documents vary depending on whether the case involves children.
4. E-Filing the divorce documents to court
Once all documents are signed and notarized, the Petitioner pays the final filing fees ($408 Court Fee + $75 E-Filing Fee). Those fees go directly to the court and are not refundable. Indigent clients may apply for a waiver.
Paralegal Assistant ensures all documents and fees are in place and marks the case as ready.
Paralegal e-files the case through Lee County’s Clerk Matrix platform.
The Court sends confirmation emails with the Case Number and list of filed documents.
Additional required documents (Cover Letter and Judgment Proposal) are sent via the Courts Divorce Portal.
Case statuses are synchronized, and progress is tracked through our internal CRM.
Final judgment typically takes 21–90 days. Once granted, the Court sends final documents to both parties.
Our team updates CRM and notifies both Petitioner and Respondent when the divorce is officially granted.
