How it works
How Our Process Works
Three simple steps, from your first call to papers ready to sign.
Tell Us What You Need
Share which documents you need and some basic information about your case. We’ll explain how the preparation works and quote your flat fee before any work begins.
We Prepare Your Documents
We prepare the documents you request using the information and instructions you provide, with careful attention to completeness and consistency.
Review, Sign & Filing Support
You review the completed documents, confirm the information and sign where required. We can also assist with filing and processing when requested.
Rejected Papers
Divorce Papers Rejected by the Court?
A court rejection notice may point out one problem at a time. After one issue is corrected and resubmitted, another may come up later, which leads to repeated corrections, delays and frustration.
LegalDoc-Prep can review your rejection notice and the related papers for common completeness, consistency, signature, attachment and formatting issues, then prepare the corrections you request.
No document preparer can guarantee court acceptance. Careful preparation and review, however, may help reduce avoidable corrections and repeated delays.
Case Types
Divorce, Separation, Nullity and Summary Dissolution
Divorce (Dissolution of Marriage)
A divorce, also called a dissolution of marriage, legally ends a marriage or domestic partnership. Divorce papers may address property, debts, child custody, visitation and support. We prepare documents using the information you provide, but we do not decide legal strategy or advise you about your rights.
Legal Separation Documents
Legal separation allows spouses to address financial, property, custody and support matters without ending the marriage. We can prepare legal separation documents at your direction. If you are unsure whether divorce or legal separation is right for you, please consult a licensed California attorney.
Nullity of Marriage Documents
A nullity case, commonly called an annulment, asks the court to find that a marriage or domestic partnership was not legally valid. We can prepare requested nullity documents, but we cannot determine whether you qualify. Questions about eligibility should go to a licensed attorney.
Summary Dissolution Documents
Some couples may qualify for California’s simplified summary dissolution process. We can prepare these documents using the information you provide. The California Courts Self-Help Center has official information on current eligibility requirements.
