You know you need to do something.
Modern Divorce Online could be just the thing.
Modern Divorce Online is designed for anyone who is considering divorce or separation but is not ready or able to hire a lawyer right away. Modern Divorce Online provides a private space for you, alone or together with your spouse, to understand how Georgia divorce law works, learn what documents will be important in your divorce, and identify what issues you will need to resolve in order to finalize your divorce. Modern Divorce Online also comes with a complete set of forms for you to file your own divorce.
Modern Divorce Online is the best first step you can take toward divorce or separation – the platform is easy-to-understand, affordable and you can follow the 6 easy steps at your own pace.
How does Modern Divorce Online Really Work?
Modern Divorce Online is organized in 6 manageable steps which generally follow how a divorce would proceed if you hired a lawyer
- Identify your issues
- Use the MDO tools
- Choose your process
- Build your team
- Work toward resolution
- finalize your divorce
Step 1 helps you understand the purely legal aspects of Georgia divorce and you can determine which legal issues apply to your situation and which do not. Think of this step as getting the answers to the questions asked by pretty much every one of our clients during an initial consultation.
Step 2 is the information gathering step. The first thing your lawyer will tell you to do is gather certain financial documents. Modern Divorce Online provides the MDO Divorce Settlement Tool for this purpose. The tool and instructions walk you through gathering and documenting the financial and personal information you will have to provide in any Georgia divorce.
Steps 3 and 4 explain your options for proceeding through the divorce process and how you should work with professionals and other people during the process.
Step 5 addresses how you might negotiate or discuss a resolution with your spouse.
If you started working on MDO by yourself or your spouse has stopped working with you, your have still accomplished an awful lot by working this far. You have done your legal and financial homework and this will save you time and money if and when you do hire a divorce lawyer or mediator.
Step 6 provides the forms necessary for you to document your agreements. Each form has instructions so you and your spouse can file an uncontested divorce. Every form can be downloaded directly on to your computer and is fully editable. You will not be inputting information into boxes and getting a one-size-fits-all product.
If you need help along the way, you can contact the divorce and family lawyers at A Modern Divorce by Taylor & Weber LLC for comprehensive representation or targeted legal advice and you’ll only pay for the services you need.
You might only need assistance to:
- Draft necessary court filing documents
- Review a proposed Settlement Agreement from your spouse or a mediator
- Provide advice and guidance while you and your spouse work with a mediator
- Learn about how Georgia law might apply in your divorce
- Consult with you as needed to develop a settlement proposal that supports your goals for your finances, family, and future
- Explaining the practical consequences of various property division options

Here are a few reasons why we created Modern Divorce Online for you
- We created Modern Divorce Online after years of working with clients who asked the same (great) questions.
- After taking the time to answer their basic questions clients would tell us that how much better they felt -- they had the information they needed to feel confident in making the first steps in moving forward with their divorce.
- At the same time, we had many clients hire us who had purchased DIY legal templates and could not get through the process – they needed more than cookie-cutter legal forms.
With Modern Divorce Online, your case can be resolved by you and your spouse together, with or without the help of a lawyer, or by the courts.
Whatever path you choose, our SIX STEPS TO A MODERN DIVORCE will guide you through the process saving you time and money.
If you need help along the way, we provide access to trusted professionals who can support you.

Are you my lawyer or will you give me legal advice if I use Modern Divorce Online ?
NO. Modern Divorce Online is a “law-related” service and not a personalized legal advice provider. Purchasing access to the platform does NOT mean we are your lawyer because you will have no client-attorney relationship with us. The platform provides information, resources, and education — but we are not able to give you legal advice specific to you or your situation. If you need traditional legal services, please seek the advice of a lawyer.
