Los Angeles Divorce | Affordable Flat Fee Divorce Service

Today we are talking about our affordable divorce service in California.

We are a small firm in northern LA County. We serve all the California courts. And we have a way where we can provide our service to you completely online.

Now, when I say online it’s a little of misnomer, we are online but we’re different from any of the other online divorce companies. In that, we actually type up your forms for you. You’ll notice, if you’re searching around many of the other companies will say you’re going to fill out a questionnaire and it’s completely automated.

We don’t do that. We have many clients who have come to us who have attempted to use these services and failed. The forms were done incorrectly and not to mention, you have to do all the work. You fill out the forms then you get the forms mailed to you or you print them out in your home.

Now you’re left with the twenty page instruction sheet of what to do. File this, serve that and you have to do all the work and that’s one of the most difficult parts. Filling out the forms is relatively easy.

With us, we will make a phone appointment with you. We can do it by email but no questionnaires. We go step by step over the phone with you and we actually type up the forms based on your responses. That way, we’re there to answer your questions and explain the process. You fully understand what’s going on, why you’re checking a certain box or why you’re providing a certain answer.

This way there’s no mistakes. This is a serious matter even on the uncontested divorce you want to get the documents right, you want to get them served correctly and that’s what were here for.

We are a full service firm. Providing our divorce service online and over the phone to help you get through this. Since we started making these videos, our business has picked up dramatically with people who want a personal touch with their divorce. Even though it’s remotely done, even though it’s done online and over the phone. Someone they can call, someone they can ask questions and that has done very well for us.

As far as costs, you’ll find that, even though our fees are slightly higher than the online firms, we’re going to save you money on court fees because we’re able to get those fees waived and we’ll talk about that when you call us.

And so our fees are reduced because we’re going to save you in court fees. So, make sure you’re going to ask me about that.

My name is Tim Blankenship. divorce661.com.

Please give me a call so I can talk to you about your particular issues in your case anywhere in California so I can explain the process and let you know how we can get this done for you and make the frustration and costs minimal for you. 662-281-0266. Tim Blankenship. divorce661.com.

Los Angeles Divorce | You Must Pay Filing Fee For Response

Posted by Tim Blankenship on

Los Angeles Divorce | You Must Pay Filing Fee For Response

Today I had an interesting call I wanted to share with you.

A call from a client or a potential client rather that had a misunderstanding on the filing fees when you file a response.

If you file for divorce, you’re going to file summons and petitions. You’re going to pay a filing fee. If the other party’s going to file a response, they also have to pay a fee.

This is common knowledge but I figured if one person had this been misunderstanding, others do and I have heard of occurrences where people have mailed in responses to the court and assumed it was filed, and there was no fee attached. So, the court just throws in the trash literally, they don’t know what to do with it.

When your spouse files for divorce, they have not paid for the entire divorce, they have paid their half of the filing fee. If you’re going to file a response, you’re also going to have to pay that $435 for instance, to file a response.

Just make sure if you are going to respond, you either need to pay the fee or you need to request the fee waiver and there’s a very strict guidelines in qualifying for fee waivers. But there is a fee to file a response and participate in the case. I think this person, the word he said “well my wife already paid for the divorce” and that’s not the case. She paid for her filing only and not for the response.

Now, we do have a method that’s called a hybrid dissolution, what that means is you purposely will not file a response but you can still enter the case by doing your financial disclosures and signing a written agreement.

This is what we do 90% of the time because it saves you guys $435 or at least the other party $435. And if you guys are doing this together you can simply split the initial filing fee.

It’s called a hybrid dissolution, its where one party files, the other party doesn’t respond, the case is going to proceed by default but it’s going to be default with agreement.

If you want more information on this particular type of judgment, it’s a divorce like any other. You get the same result it just saves you money.

Stay on my YouTube channel and search for hybrid dissolution judgment or hybrid divorce judgment checklist. I’ve done a couple of videos on it.

Go ahead and take a look at that and it goes over the checklist and why you can save $435.

File a response, pay a fee or fee waiver. Do a hybrid and don’t worry about having to pay a fee and you can still enter into a stipulated judgment with your spouse without paying the fee.

My name is Tim Blankenship. divorce661.com is our website.

Give me a call. 661-281-0266.

We specialize in California divorce. Look forward to working with you.

Los Angeles Divorce | How To Complete Change Of Address

Posted by Tim Blankenship on

Los Angeles Divorce | How To Complete Change Of Address

Today I want to talk to you about the change of address form that you need to file if you move during your divorce.

The clerk’s office has very specific rules or guidelines you could say in where they mail your documents. So, I want to talk to you about the change of address form and why it’s important you update your records with the court.

Let’s assume you file for divorce, you live in a location where, you file for divorce on your summons and petition and your case cover sheet that tells the court where you live. That’s the address the court’s going to have on record for you.

Not that they’re going to mail anything to you probably but if they were say for instance to set a hearing or something along those lines. They do that by mail, they don’t call you so you’re going to want to have your address correct with them.

The most important part is when you file your judgment. When you file your judgment, you’re going to file several documents. It’s twenty to twenty-five pages depending on your circumstances and one of those is a notice of entry of judgment form. It’s FL190 I believe.

That form is going to be mailed to you when you submit your final judgment, if the address on that document does not match the address that you initially filed with the court for that, if all your paperwork is correct, everything else is fine, they will reject your judgment because of a wrong address.

This is form MC-040 I believe, you can submit that change of address with your judgment just make sure you serve a copy or at least you give evidence of serving a copy on the other party but make sure you have that change of address completed.

Either before you submit your judgment or along with the submitted judgment so they know the address is correct and you notified the other party.

My name is Tim Blankenship. divorce661.com is our site.

For more information, you can give us a call at 661-218-0266. We specialize in the California divorce process.

Online Divorce Service Antelope Valley Palmdale Lancaster

Posted by Tim Blankenship on

Online Divorce Service Antelope Valley Palmdale Lancaster

Today I want to talk to you about online divorce services.

We are a licensed and bonded legal document preparation firm. We specialize in only divorce. We’re local here in Los Angeles County and we are serving the Palmdale and Lancaster area out in Antelope Valley.

If you’re watching this video, you probably recently done a search for online divorce services. And I want to talk to you a bit about the ups and downs of using those types of services, pros and cons if you will.

We’ve had a lot of clients from the Antelope Valley call us after using one of these online companies you can find on Google and there’s hundreds of them. They’ve gone to these services because they offer these affordable prices online, these teaser rates. And what they find out is the service is very lacking. They know they’ve wasted their time and money and become completely frustrated. They look for a full service firm such as ours and we usually have to clean up what mess has been started.

What we’re trying to do with this video is hopefully see that you’ll, in searching for an online divorce firm. They’ll come across this video and watch this and give us a call. Of course that’s what we’re trying to achieve here. But we also have a version of the online process. And I want to talk to you about the distinct differences.

When you use an online company that’s serving all the states, let’s say. All you’re doing is filling out questionnaires online and those answers automatically populated to the form and then you print that form. It’s not reviewed by anybody, no one is going to look at it to make sure it’s done right and then when you print your forms, you have to figure out how to file and serve and do all the heavy lifting and hard work that’s left in your case.

With our service, we can do it completely online. But essentially we’re not using questionnaires. We’re going to type up the forms just as is if you’re sitting in our office.

We can do that in a variety of ways. We can do it right over the phone. If you are a visual person and you like to see it we can use GoToMeeting where you can see our screens. But what we do is, we will prepare your case. You will never have to come to our office. We can do it right over the phone, via email, via chat, you name it. We have lots of resources here.

We can get your total divorce complete from start to finish and its full service, so it’s not just a form being completed by someone you don’t know, by some machine. Its live people who understand the divorce process, taking care of your case from start to finish.

In doing that, what you get with our service, even though we are doing it online or remotely is we’re going to prepare all your documents by hand. You will not have to do it. We’re going to file your documents for you. You won’t have to go to court. We’re going to serve them, so you won’t have to have a family member get involved or hire a process server. We’re going to take care of that for you. We’re going to prepare all you financial disclosures. We’ll help you determine child’s support and spousal support, parenting plans and draft your final judgment and we do all these for one low flat fee.

Now, let’s talk about prices a little bit. If you look online, you’ll find prices anywhere from $149 to $299 to use an automated service. When you use these service, they’re going to give you instruction sheet that tells you, you need to file your petition, $435 by the way and your spouse needs to file a response in a subsequent steps and another $435. That’s completely unnecessary.

Your spouse, in an uncontested case, if you guys are working through your case amicably does not need to file a response. What we recommend and how we save you money and what we recommend you do is that you don’t file a response, save that second $435 and those fees will cover our fees and well do all the work for you.

What we have found is, we have been able to provide a full divorce service for you and do all the work for you and it’s going to end up costing you less than using one of these online services where they have you file two fees.

Give me a call, I’d be happy to discuss that for you.

Uncontested Divorce Service Antelope Valley Palmdale Lancaster

We are serving the Antelope Valley area to Lancaster Palmdale. You know where you’re at.

I want to talk to you a bit about our uncontested divorce service. We are a licensed and bonded legal document preparation firm specializing in divorce.

We’re a divorce paralegal service in the Antelope Valley and we want to talk to you a little bit about what an uncontested divorce means.

Uncontested divorces essentially are cases that are no contest, you may have heard.

A contest is referring to going to trial, going to court, and speaking to a judge.

So, uncontested means you’re trying to work things out. It doesn’t mean that everything is worked out. It just means you plan on working things out and hoping that you don’t have to go to court.

An uncontested divorce could mean that you and your spouse are still in this agreement over many issues. And it still is considered as uncontested divorce.

I want to clarify that because some people think when they are going through divorce, they kind of come to an agreement that they automatically need an attorney.

I’m not saying it’s not good to get legal advice, I’m just saying it may not be necessary.

Statistics tell us that in most cases, attorneys are not necessary to get through your divorce case.

Our service can help you with your uncontested case even if you have disagreements with your spouse.

Many times, these things work themselves out during the divorce process.

And in the process, once you filed and served your paperwork, the next step is to do all your financial disclosures. At that point, you have to come up with an idea how you’re going to split your property.

If you have trouble deciding at that point, before you seek an attorney, there’s always other services such as mediation that may be helpful and help you come to a conclusion or resolution for the issues that you are unable to come to decisions on, on your own.

Many times, this has to do with money, division of assets and debts. Maybe moving out of the family home, issues related to custody or visitation and all those can be down to mediation.

What we recommend id you start with us, get the ball rolling, get your case filed and served, and if you get stuck and you need assistance, you can simply let us know.

Say “Hey Tim, we can’t figure this part out, what do we do?” and that’s when you go to mediation.

It’s going to be a much more cost effective way of getting through your case.

So, that’s why we wanted to talk to you about uncontested divorce cases.

We are licensed and bonded legal document preparation service specializing in divorce. We handle all of Los Angeles County and we are the only firm that specializes only in divorce.

Make sure to give us a call, we’d be happy to talk about your specific case. My number is 661-281-0266 and you can get more information off our website at divorce661.com.
