What this means
Some people can file without hiring their own separate lawyer in straightforward matters. In the Resolvi process, each case is still checked by a lawyer, with additional support where complexity or risk is higher.
Why people use it
People use this pathway to balance cost, confidence, and procedural accuracy.
What courts/judges usually care about
Courts usually care about complete and compliant filings, not whether a lawyer was used.
Common mistakes
- Underestimating procedural issues such as service.
- Missing consequences of separate property or parenting pathways.
Typical process
Who this pathway suits
It may suit cooperative, low-complexity matters with clear facts and available records.
Typical timeline
Timelines vary based on filing quality and procedural compliance.
Typical cost drivers
Corrections, delays, and escalation into contested issues often increase cost.
