If you live anywhere in the State of Alabama, then we can file your online divorce in the county where you or your spouse reside. For example, if you live in Lauderdale County you can fill out the questionnaire online letting us know your agreement and pay the fees online as well. Once we receive the fees and questionnaire then our Alabama uncontested divorce attorneys prepare your paperwork and get it to you for you and your spouse to execute and return to us to file online.

Once it is filed, the judge will issue your divorce decree within a month or two as well. You will usually receive your decree by email and are officially divorced at that point. No in court proceedings. No in person appointments. If you want an appointment with the divorce lawyer, you can have a consultation by video or phone without ever having to take off work.

The online divorce may require additional fees if there are substantial property or tax considerations involved, business interests, paternity issues, retirement issues, or any other complex issues that would require more time of the attorney. There is also a filing fee that the county charges when a divorce is filed. This filing fee varies from county to county.

Our Alabama online divorce attorneys are charging a low flat rate of $390 to file a simple uncontested divorce without minor children of the marriage and $490 if you do have minor children.  This does not include the filing fee which varies from county to county. If you call our online divorce law firm today, we can tell you the filing fee where you reside. Other than the attorney fee and the filing fee, there are no other fees since there are generally no hearings in an Alabama uncontested divorce.

In an online divorce in Alabama, it is best to have a local Alabama lawyer help you out. An attorney from another state can usually not file a case for you here, since they are not licensed to practice in the State of Alabama. That is why the national legal paperwork preparation companies just prepare the paperwork for you to get signed and file yourself. This means that after you and your spouse sign and execute the paperwork, you have to physically go to the Courthouse and file it yourself. At that point, if there are any issues with how you or your spouse signed it how it was prepared, the contents of your settlement agreement, or if there are just certain local documents or forms that the county you file in require and the national document preparation company did not know about then the judge will dismiss your case.

This is why it is best to use a local Alabama law firm for an uncontested divorce in Jefferson County. We will file it for you online (since Alabama licensed attorneys have to file all cases online in the Alabama court system) and monitor the progress of your case until the decree is entered. If a deficiency or issue arises, we will work with you to take care of it quickly and easily, usually at no extra costs. However, since we know the requirements for all counties there are hardly ever any issues with our paperwork, and we also check the signed documents that you return to us to ensure there will be no issues once the case is filed. We realize that going through a divorce is difficult enough. Our local divorce attorneys stay on top of your case to ensure it goes as swiftly and easily as possible.

An Alabama divorce can be done so simply and easily because you have a signed contractual agreement in your divorce. There is really nothing for a judge to do since both parties are in agreement. However, the judge does have to approve the agreement you reached with your spouse, but as long as there is nothing unusual or strange about it then there should not be a problem. Also, when you tell us your agreement, we will let you know if we foresee any issues long before the case is actually filed with the Court.

Once the online divorce in Alabama is filed, it usually takes at least thirty days for you to be officially divorced. This is because there is something in Alabama called a ‘cooling off’ period. This ‘cooling off period of thirty days is in place so that a married couple can make sure the divorce is what they want. After these thirty days the judge can officially divorce you and your spouse, which is why we tell clients it takes a month or two in most cases to get divorced online in Alabama.

We have offices across the State of Alabama, but you do not have to come in to get an easy divorce done with us. Our Birmingham online divorce attorney is licensed to practice law in the State of Alabama and is a proud member of the Better Business Bureau for North Alabama.

If you would like a simple divorce anywhere in Alabama, then we can easily get that done for you. To get the process started, you must make sure that you and your spouse are in complete agreement on all issues. Then you get us the information about your agreement via questionnaire online, pay the flat fee, and our online divorce lawyers will get to work on your case.
