5 Things a Paralegal Can Help with During a Divorce


Are you going through a divorce? The divorce process is not only complicated but also overwhelming. The situation is even worse when you go through it without a paralegal by your side. Paralegals and divorce go hand in hand. At Wall & Wall Attorneys At Law PC, we offer state of the art paralegal services.

Why do you need a paralegal?

Paralegals work closely with attorneys to ensure the divorce process is smooth. In most cases, paralegals understand the process more than some attorneys since they handle credible information. They may not provide legal advice to you, but they are qualified professionals with high-end education levels with intense training in legal procedures. Moreover, they work under a licensed attorney.

During your divorce, a paralegal can help with the following:

Document Preparation

The divorce process isn't cakes and ale. It requires numerous documentations in legal forms. The forms are filled with absolute accuracy. They contain sensitive, important information such as income, joint accounts, cars, pensions, and debts. The information provides an in-depth understanding of value, ownership, and expression of interest. Preparing them can be nerve-wracking without a paralegal.

Guides You on Form Submission

Once the forms are filled completed, the next stage is submission. You need to understand how to file them with the court clerk for the legal process to commence. A paralegal guides you through the process of submission. Furthermore, he/she helps you acquire a temporary hearing order for child and spousal support.

Guides You to Serve Your Spouse the Forms

In the state of Utah, there are specific steps one must follow when serving a spouse. If you do it differently, it could jeopardize the entire process. You have a window period of 120 days to serve the forms. The paralegals help you through the serving process and ensuring you get proof of doing so.

Child Support and Alimony Request

Filing for child support and alimony is an essential procedure that requires paralegal assistance. They will help you in ensuring complete documentation is provided but not advice you legally on how much to request and whether you qualify. When the documents require modification, paralegals help.

Inform and Educate on Divorce Process

Paralegals have unmatched abilities to inform and educate on legal procedures. They understand legal repercussions and provide general answers. However, they may not provide legal advice.
