Understanding the Document Preparation Process at Couples Solutions Center

At Couples Solutions Center, we understand that navigating the legal aspects of family transitions, such as divorce or separation, can be overwhelming. Our mission is to simplify this process by offering professional and compassionate support tailored to your needs. One of our key services is document preparation, a critical step for individuals seeking to manage their divorce legal proceedings efficiently and affordably. Here is an in-depth look at how we assist our clients through this process.

Step 1: Initial Consultation

During your initial, free consultation, we take the time to understand your unique situation, goals, and concerns. If you and your spouse are in agreement on all issues, including the divisions of all assets and debts, parenting time, and any potential support agreements, we will suggest that you go with our document preparation option. Document preparation is a more affordable option, if you and your spouse are in complete agreement. 

Step 2: Information Gathering

Next, we send you a complete list of forms to fill out, which allows you to tell us how you would like to divide all of your assets and debts, handle parenting related agreements, and any potential support agreements. This step involves collecting relevant details such as:

• -Personal information for all parties involved

• -Financial records, including income, assets, and liabilities

• -Parenting time, if applicable

  
  

We provide clear checklists and templates to ensure you can easily compile the necessary data.

Step 3: Document Preparation

Using the information you provide, our experienced team prepares the required legal documents.

These may include:

• Summary Petition for Dissolution of Marriage

• Parenting Plan

• Consent Decree

• Property Settlement Agreement

• Child support calculator 

• Spousal Maintenance Worksheet

Our professionals ensure that every document is accurately completed, compliant with Arizona laws, and tailored to your specific needs. 

Step 4: Review and Revisions

Before finalizing any paperwork, we send you your drafts for review. This step ensures that the information is accurate and that the documents reflect your intentions. If any adjustments are needed, our team will make revisions promptly. We also provide guidance on the next steps, including filing instructions and timelines.

Step 5: Filing and Follow-Up

Once your documents are finalized, we offer support for filing them with the appropriate court. While Couples Solutions Center does not provide legal representation, we’re here to answer your procedural questions and help you navigate the filing process. Additionally, our team remains available to assist with any follow-up needs or document updates.
