Electronic submission through the court’s e-filing system.

If you selected our package that includes electronic filing, we will take care of that for you. We will open your account in your state’s electronic filing system and use the credit card information you provided to pay the state’s filing fee.

If you choose to electronically file yourself, you must open your account, follow the prompts, upload both parties’ information, upload each document, pay the fee and submit.

Yes. Your case is a paternity matter vs. a dissolution of marriage. Our forms adjust for these cases and you can finalize your case through our platform just as easily.

The Petitioner is the person “petitions” the court to open a case. The Petitioner is the one who pays the fee to open the case. Beyond that, there is no significance to being the Petitioner v the Respondent.

The Respondent is the person “responding” to the case that was started by the Petitioner.

In these amicable resolution proceedings we suggest you do not get “hung up on” who will be the Petitioner or the Respondent.

Our software has a built-in child support calculator based on the requirements found in the applicable law, Florida Statutes sec. 61.30.

A settlement agreement is a legally binding contract between the Petitioner and the Respondent.

In Paternity cases:

Your settlement Agreement should contain, at a minimum:

1. Parenting Plan and
2. child support amount.

A well written Parenting Plan should also contain language that expands on these two required elements.

In Divorce cases with children:

Your settlement Agreement should contain, at a minimum:

1. Parenting Plan
2. Equitable Distribution (division of assets and liabilities)
3. Alimony (if neither party is receiving that should be addressed too)
4. Child Support

A well written Marital Settlement Agreement should also contain language that expands on these required elements. If you do not have children together then there will not be paragraphs containing a Parenting Plan or Child Support.

The draft settlement agreement we provide you have been curated and improved upon over many years. They contains what is commonly referred to as “boilerplate” suggested language used by our lawyers in their current ongoing, expensive litigation cases. You are free to modify the language as needed to customize the agreement to your specific needs.

We recommend a consultation with a lawyer or certified mediator, if you get stuck or have any legal questions, comments, or concerns prior to signing any settlement agreement.

* Thequickdivorce.com© does not offer legal advice. Additional boiler plate language contained in our forms was drafted by the attorneys we hired to maximize the usefulness of the forms but is suggestive only and can be removed upon request.
