Divorce and/or custody cases in both Georgia and North Carolina are becoming more cumbersome with each passing year, and there are numerous documents that must be submitted to the court before matters of divorce can be settled, particularly when minor children are involved. In efforts to save money, parties often get "papers" online and attempt to complete the divorce and/or custody documents themselves. This often results in important issues not being dealt with by the parties, which usually means an expensive second trip through the court process at a later date. Even worse, the documents may not be sufficient for the judge in the case, and the action may be dismissed, in which case the parties may have to pay additional filing fees to re-file the case properly after consulting an attorney.
