LawyerSchmoyer.com is an online program that prepares divorce papers for cases in Illinois, then guides you through the rest of the process. The program asks you questions just like a lawyer would, and depending on your answers, it may ask more detailed questions—just like a lawyer would.
If you answer a question in a way that would cause a problem in court, you will be alerted to the potential problem. The questions usually take about 20 minutes to answer and address the divorce, maintenance (alimony), children (custody, support and visitation), and property division (including real estate). After you've answered all the questions, LawyerSchmoyer.com will do all the messy work of preparing your divorce papers.
Your Illinois divorce papers will be custom-prepared based on the information you provide. You can arrange your settlement the way YOU want — not the way some lawyer tells you it has to be.
This program is for anyone filing in Illinois for what’s called an Uncontested Divorce, meaning you and your spouse agree (assets, child-related matters etc.) and there will be no trial. Read more about qualifications, how long the process takes, and support for using the program.
