How much does DivorceReady cost?

Do I need a lawyer to file for divorce?

For an uncontested divorce where both parties agree on all terms, you can file as a Pro Se (self-represented) litigant. Courts handle Pro Se filings every day. Our service prepares state-specific documents and provides step-by-step filing instructions. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice; local court rules vary, so confirm requirements with your court.

Florida waiting period

The current Florida profile lists the divorce waiting period as 20 days minimum. That is the minimum timing rule; the full timeline may be longer depending on service, court review, local scheduling, and whether documents are accepted the first time.

The clock often starts after filing, service, or another court event depending on the state.

Court backlog can add time after the minimum period.

Rejected or missing documents can delay finalization.

What to do while waiting

Uncontested filers can often use the waiting period to confirm signatures, organize final documents, prepare for a short hearing if required, and check local filing instructions.

Keep signed forms together.

Save filing receipts and case numbers.

Watch for clerk notices or court messages.

Avoid timeline assumptions

A waiting period is not a guarantee that the divorce will be finalized on that exact date. Judges and clerks still review the packet and may require corrections or additional steps.

Verify final hearing rules.

Confirm whether the decree or judgment must be submitted separately.

Track court notices after filing.
