CLEAR ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BEGIN

What people usually want to know.

Is Fast Divorce a law firm?

No. Fast Divorce is not a law firm, cannot give legal advice and does not represent clients in court. You represent yourself. Consult an attorney if you need legal advice or courtroom representation.

How do I know this service is legitimate?

Fast Divorce has served Californians for years. We are registered as a Legal Document Assistant in Los Angeles County, Registration No. 2024240911. You can verify the registration with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk at (800) 201-8999, option 4. We serve self-represented clients throughout California remotely. You can read independent reviews on this page. We are not a court or government agency, and we cannot promise an outcome.

How long does it take?

We move quickly on the work we control and file electronically or by mail when filing is included. Court processing and acceptance are controlled by the court. California divorce finalization includes a minimum six-month waiting period; that is not a promise of completion, and legal separation follows different rules.

Can you help me if I already filed and my papers were rejected or left incomplete?

We can review the documents and court notices you provide and explain which accepted document-work scope may fit. We cannot give legal advice or guarantee court acceptance.
