DO I NEED A LAWYER TO FILE FOR DIVORCE IN FLORIDA?
������ That is a very good question especially in these times of economic crisis.� Thanks to the Florida Supreme Court the answer is quite simply NO. You may have your divorce documents prepared by a nonlawyer, thus you would be� representing yourself as a �pro se litigant.� Sometimes you may hear people�refer to divorce nonlawyers as divorce paralegals.� The terms are not interchangeable because of the way The Florida Bar defines a paralegal.� However, most�people�refer to�a legal helper�for members of the public as a paralegal instead of� a "nonlawyer".��
�������� Now, back to your question.� Lawyers are expensive and can only represent one party.� You do not need to hire a lawyer for divorce proceedings. �An alternative� to hiring an attorney is hiring a "nonlawyer."� Typically, he or she will be able to assist you with these routine documents for a fraction of the cost.� So just�call your local nonlawyer for routine contested or noncontested divorces in the State of Florida.� He/she may also be a Certified Paralegal�who is certfied �by a national organization.� Just ask for credential verification.

DO I NEED A LAWYER TO FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY?
��������� That is a very good question.� Just like divorce, filing for bankruptcy does NOT require hiring a lawyer and paying their high fees.� You can represent yourself as a pro se litigant.
����� According to the United States Bankruptcy Code a nonlawyer document preparer may� assist you in preparing� the documents.� Each nonlawyer professional, sometimes referred to as a "paralegal" may prepare the documents and explain the procedures without giving any legal advice.�� He or she will assist you as a pro se (self-represented) litigant.�� The numbers of pages generally prepared are in a range of 42-50 pages according to your individualized case.� The cost of utilizing the professional services of a nonlawyer, of course, is significantly less than an attorney (lawyer) fee.� Keep in mind that your nonlawyer is required to disclose the fee charged to the Bankruptcy Court.
������ If you are seeking bankruptcy, a� pre-filing and post-filing course is required.� Debthelpers.com has successfully assisted� my customers with ease either on the phone or via the internet in English and Spanish.� My customers have been very satisfied and found the experience very helpful.� Also, the certificates are delivered� quickly to my clients and me making the process stress-free.� If you are interested, Florida based company,� Debthelpers.com can be contacted via the internet at Debthelpers.com or by calling 800-920-0226.�
