A simpler path for mutual Virginia divorces

When you both agree, divorce may cost much less.

If you and your spouse agree to divorce, have little to divide, and are not preparing to fight over property, support, or custody, your lawyer may need to do far less work.

The result can be a roughly $1,000 Straight Walkaway instead of a $14,500 legal battle.

The Straight Walkaway

When divorce is mutual, it can be simpler.

Some couples need lawyers to negotiate major disagreements and prepare for court. Others agree that the marriage should end, have relatively uncomplicated finances, and have little to fight over.

A Straight Walkaway is designed for that second group. This questionnaire asks factual questions to see whether your situation may fit. A lawyer makes the final determination.
