Divorce Document Preparation in Denver, CO

The court in Denver, Arvada, or Lakewood, CO requires a number of documents for your divorce, all of which the mediator can help you prepare. Since the Parenting Plan and Separation Agreements are the two main areas of discussion in mediation, the A Center for Divorce Solutions provides you with a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in each of those areas.

  • A Petition for Dissolution of Marriage alerts the court that you want a divorce or legal separation and gives it some basic information about you.
  • A Case Information Sheet has all your personal information…names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, children’s names, birth dates, and social security numbers.
  • Sworn Financial Statements from each of you, with information about your income, your deductions, expenses and assets, and debts.
  • Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Financial Disclosures attests that each of you has provided your spouse with back up information for your Sworn Financial Statement.
