With cost a top concern among individuals considering divorce, a new alternative for uncontested divorces is gaining popularity in Texas. Dallas family law firm, GoransonBain Ausley, has seen an increase in demand for their new flat fee divorce service, which eliminates the unforeseen costs and moves the process along in an amicable and efficient manner.

“One of the most significant factors that drives the cost of a divorce is the relationship between the spouses,” says Thomas Greenwald, a senior partner with GoransonBain Ausley. If spouses have been able to set aside their difference and reach agreements, then with the advice and guidance of an experienced family lawyer they will find it is possible for their divorce to be settled quickly and for them to control the cost with a flat fee divorce.

A flat fee divorce is a good solution for spouses who have reached agreement regarding asset distribution and debt allocation. If children are involved, a flat fee divorce is a good solution if spouses are in agreement about custody and support.

With the average cost of a Texas divorce ranging from $15,000 to $25,000, the flat fee price of $2,500 to $5,000 is an attractive option. However, the process is not right for everyone. The firm has made available an online interactive quiz and a list of Frequently Asked Questions to find out if a flat fee divorce is the right option. The best way, however, to determine if a flat fee divorce is the right solution is to set up a consultation with a divorce attorney to evaluate options, adds Greenwald.

Divorce is a process, but every case is different.

While finances play an important role in any divorce, Greenwald says flat fee divorce should not be seen as a “cheap” alternative. Going after a “cheap” divorce may have both short-term and long-term consequences, he adds. Whether a divorce is simple or complex, agreed or contested, it is important to consult with an experienced and skilled attorney that will provide guidance on the process, answer questions and concerns, and prepare documents that will provide protection for the short and long term.
