Many couples are not looking for a courtroom battle. They are looking for a practical and structured process that allows them to resolve divorce privately, efficiently, and with less emotional and financial strain.
Divorced in a Day was designed for couples who are prepared to work toward resolution and want greater control over the outcome of their case.
Rather than spending months navigating prolonged litigation, many clients prefer a mediation-focused approach that prioritizes organization, communication, and efficient problem-solving.
Our process is specifically designed to help qualifying couples resolve divorce issues thoughtfully while avoiding unnecessary conflict whenever possible.
Each case begins with a consultation to determine whether the Divorced in a Day process is appropriate for your situation. Divorced in a Day is the right choice for couples that want to stay out of court, save money, and stress.
Parties complete a financial and family inventory form. Our office then prepares the draft divorce documents in advance of the mediation session. This process ensures parties are ready to fully resolve their case in a single day.
The mediation session is designed to help parties resolve all major divorce issues in a structured and organized environment. Parties remain in separate rooms while neutral mediators facilitate productive discussions regarding finances, property division, support, and parenting issues (if applicable).
Following mediation, our office prepares and files the final divorce documents with the court. Couples using our process do not appear in court.
Divorced in a Day is offered as a flat-fee mediation service designed to provide clarity and predictability from the beginning of the process.
The program fee is $5,000 and includes:
Many clients appreciate having a clear understanding of costs at the outset rather than navigating the uncertainty of prolonged litigation expenses.
Do we have to go to court to get divorced through Divorced in a Day?
Couples using our mediation program complete the divorce process without attending court appearances. Our office prepares and files the necessary documents following mediation. The process we file through is called the Summary Consent Decree Process.
Will I be in the same room as my spouse during mediation?
No. Parties remain in separate rooms while neutral mediators facilitate discussions throughout the mediation process. Contact with your spouse will not occur.
Is Divorced in a Day only for couples who agree on everything?
No. That is why we reserve a full day for mediation. Many couples still need assistance and guidance resolving financial, property, or parenting issues. The mediation process is designed to help parties work through unresolved issues in a structured environment.
How long does the process take?
The mediation session itself is completed in a single day, and many couples finish the process in less than two hours. Once your paperwork is filed with the court, Arizona law requires a minimum 60-day waiting period before a judge can finalize the divorce. In most cases, the court approves the divorce shortly after that waiting period expires.
Can retirement accounts and property be divided through mediation?
Yes. Many Divorced in a Day cases involve retirement accounts, real estate, financial accounts, and other marital assets.
Is Divorced in a Day confidential?
Mediation discussions are generally confidential and designed to provide a more private alternative to contested courtroom litigation.
How do we know if our case qualifies?
The process begins with a consultation to determine whether Divorced in a Day is the right fit for your situation. The program is ideal for couples who want to resolve their divorce efficiently, remain in control of the outcome, and work cooperatively toward an agreement. You do not need to agree on every issue before starting — that is exactly what the mediation process is designed to help you accomplish.
