LetsGetDivorced.com
|
|
In 2012 Gerald decided to create LetsGetDivorced.com to help solve a big financial challenge that many people encounter when pursuing a divorce — they can't afford to hire a lawyer to handle their divorce.
|
|
Gerald envisioned LetsGetDivorced.com as a platform that provides an affordable, convenient, and user-friendly online divorce service, enabling people to complete and generate ready-to-file forms for an uncontested, no-fault divorce without an attorney. His goal was to model the service after popular online tax preparation software, like TurboTax®, which allows users to prepare and file their tax forms simply and affordably without an accountant's assistance.
|
|
His expertise in creating helpful, easy-to-use, high quality software like TurboTax® was honed when he worked for over 10 years at Intuit®, the parent company of TurboTax®, which is used by hundreds of millions of people.
|
|
While at Intuit®, Gerald had the rare honor of being selected as a speaker for its annual Technology Forum two years in a row, 2004 and 2005. There, he presented on utilizing new software technology to streamline the development of user-friendly, internet-based web applications.
|
|
He leveraged the expertise and experience he gained at Intuit®, to create user-friendly online software, and combined it with his background and expertise as an attorney to develop the LetsGetDivorced.com online divorce forms preparation service.
|
|
Gerald didn't just create LetsGetDivorced.com, he also personally used its online divorce service for his own uncontested, no-fault divorce. So, based on his own firsthand experience, he knows that it is easy to use — and works. Gerald is very grateful that, for over a decade, LetsGetDivorced.com, has assisted thousands of people to file a low-cost uncontested divorce, enabling them to move forward into new chapters of their lives.

Premium Filing Package
After many years as one of the leading online divorce services for uncontested divorce document preparation, LetsGetDivorced.com expanded its offerings to include an optional
Premium Filing Package
(for an additional fee) for customers who want the convenience of a more fully guided divorce. With this package, experienced paralegals review the divorce documents for completeness and
E-File the divorce
on the customer's behalf, which can greatly speed up the divorce process.
|
|
They will then monitor your case in court keeping you updated about its progress until your divorce is finalized, and provide you with a copy of the signed Judgment of Divorce. With this Premium divorce filing package you can complete your divorce in as little as 1-3 months. This Premium divorce filing package is currently available as an upgrade to LetsGetDivorced.com's Standard divorce filing package for filing an uncontested divorce in the State of New York. As with the Standard divorce filing package, in the Premium filing package customers are responsible for paying the court fees charged by the court directly to court.

Gerald's philosophy about divorce:
|
Believe in Your Worth:
Always remember that you are a valuable person who deserves happiness and contentment.
|
Preserve Relationships:
Aim to maintain a civil, if not friendly, relationship with your spouse after your divorce.
|
Embrace the Future:
Progress with the confidence that you possess the power to forge a positive and happy future for yourself.
