My wife of 7-years and I are going to get a divorce. I've talked to a few attorneys, and if we can agree on everything, it's going to cost me about $2000 to get it done. Problem is, I don't have that kind of money. Some have said that I can make 4-payments of $500 each, but even that would be very difficult. My wife had us so backwards on our bills, it's going to take me a little while to get on my feet. I've found several web-sites that talk about filing for divorce with their paperwork kit for only $149 or similar amounts. Is this an acceptable way to go? I'm really hoping my wife and I can agree on everything, so this would definately make things easier on both of us as well as our kids... I'm just wondering if it's the right way to go or not. Any help would be much appreciated!!! Thanks!
