Divorce Services Business Market
The divorce services market consists of a diverse set of divorce service options for those seeking a divorce. But there is one category that dominates…
Divorce Service Options
- The traditional option for those divorcing is hiring a lawyer trained as a litigator, thus bringing an adversarial approach to divorce, and is at the top of the cost ladder for divorce services.
- A second option is to hire a collaborative practice law firm. Each party in the divorce hires their own collaborative attorney and other family / financial professionals to try to achieve a settlement and not litigate the divorce. This can be costly since each party has to hire its own collaborative attorney, financial planner, and other support services.
- The next option is a mediation firm that will bring the divorced parties to a dissolution of the marriage contract at a slightly lower cost than using a lawyer and without going to trial.
- Another option is an amicable or peaceful divorce that is significantly less costly than using a lawyer or mediation. Divorce With Dignity is representative of this type of divorce service.
- The last type is the newest addition to divorce service options spawned by the Internet and known as an online or forms-only divorce service. The best-known of these is LegalZoom®. This divorce service simply provides the legal forms for an uncontested divorce and is the lowest-cost divorce option.
