Affordable Divorce Process in Houston, TX

The Divorce Better Method

You have decided to divorce. What comes next very much depends on what you and your partner need, want and are capable of. Do you really need to hire lawyers to fight and for a judge to decide what is in your best interests? Or are you and your partner capable of deciding what your future looks like, even if you need some help getting there?

Divorce Better provides you an alternative to the conventional divorce model. By utilizing the framework of an uncontested divorce and supplementing with mediation as needed, we offer you the opportunity to avoid a long, expensive legal battle and the ability to divorce with an attorney for a flat fee, in a fraction of the time and with a fraction of the heartache of a typical divorce.

Uncontested Divorce without Mediation

Some divorces are simple enough that the drafting of the divorce documents is relatively straight forward and does not require extensive negotiation to determine who gets the silverware and what happens to the kids on a snow day.

Have you and your partner already agreed to who will get what and you don’t have any kids? For about $1,000, a family law attorney will draft and file everything you need to successfully divorce.

If there are kiddos to consider, do you and your partner agree on a custody schedule and the fundamentals of co-parenting? If so, our basic divorce package for families with children is around $1,500.

You can even start the process to file for divorce right now.

Uncontested Divorce with Mediation

If you and your partner are generally committed to deciding your divorce on your terms, but need some help reaching an agreement on some specifics, our Guided Divorce Package is the best option to get you an affordable, fast divorce on your terms.

It is designed for families with kids or a complicated financial situation and, while it offers the ability to customize your divorce, it does not include things you may not need- like temporary orders or the division of military benefits- which can be included for an additional fee.

What comes next very much depends on whether you and your partner want and are capable of deciding your divorce yourselves, even if you need some help getting there.

Benefits of the Affordable Divorce Texas Method

$1,400

For less than the retainer for a divorce litigator, we put your family’s well-being above all else and can help you achieve the best divorce at an affordable price.

Fast

Courts are overwhelmed, and contested divorces can take a year or more. In contrast, by utilizing the Divorce Better process, we can help you resolve the issues a judge would otherwise decide in a fraction of the time. We can help you divorce quickly, and be ready to finalize your divorce as soon as the 60-day waiting period has expired.

Flat Fee

Instead of worrying about the constant stream of lawyer’s bills, we take the anxiety out of the cost of divorce. We provide you with a one-time, flat fee that includes everything you need to successfully divorce based on our transparent fixed pricing.

Free Consult

For couples that qualify for our agreed divorce process, we offer a free, no obligation initial consultation during which a licensed Texas attorney and mediator will explain the Divorce Better process, as well as answer your questions and help you understand all your options.

Control

The conventional method of divorcing robs couples of control over their own families and finances, transferring power over to their attorneys and strangers who will determine what is in their family’s “best interests”. We believe you know what is best for you and your children and empower couples to make those decisions.

Less Stress

Not only is the Divorce Better method designed to help couples divorce faster and for less money, but perhaps most importantly, it leaves families healthier and happier, in a better emotional, psychological and financial position to move on.

A New Life

It may be hard to imagine now, but life will go on, and you deserve to start the next chapter as whole- mentally and financially- as possible. You are deserving and capable of happiness, and we want to help you achieve your best life.

Family First

Divorce can be traumatic for children, and we consciously work to minimize any negative impact. While parents divorce, families do not, and we want to create a framework for families to evolve, with the needs of children guiding all decisions.

Expert Guidance

Divorce is a big change. For most people, it is a defining moment in their lives, and even more so for children. That is why you need a team that is skilled at managing the transition and whose singular goal is to lay the groundwork for a successful next chapter in your family’s life.

No Shame

Divorce can be intensely intimate, leaving people vulnerable psychologically, emotionally and financially. We promise not only privacy and confidentiality, but also a safe space free from shaming or judgment.

Custom (Re)solutions

Your family is unique. But judges don’t have the time to learn your family’s story, and most divorce lawyers are not accustomed to creative custody arrangements or planning for your financial health. With diverse backgrounds and experiences, we are uniquely qualified to empower families to come up with their own solutions for their future happiness.

Confidential

The Divorce Better method is a private, confidential process that protects you and your family’s privacy, offering a means to secure valuable personal information and keep it out of the public record.
