First of all, keep in mind that this is your 15 minutes with one of our experienced, empathic team members. Come to the call with any and all questions you have about the divorce process in your state – or don’t. Call alone or with your spouse. We know the process well and want to help you find the right plan to get you from start to finish in the most affordable and efficient way possible.
How to prepare for your 15-minute call
Don’t prepare. And we really, truly mean this. We’re offering this call for free because we want to make sure your divorce process starts off on the right foot – with you feeling knowledgeable and in control. This is your chance to share your divorce story without judgment and discuss it with an experienced account coordinator who has helped many others who have been in your place. If you don’t have questions for us, we’ll still have tips and guidance to share with you.
Our time together is going to fly by, but by the end of the call, you’ll be surprised at just how much can be covered in such a short amount of time.
Sample call agenda
Every call is a little bit different, but in general, this is how it usually goes:
- Introductions. A super quick overview of who you are and who we are.
- Where you are in the divorce process. This is your chance to share your story. Are you just thinking about getting a divorce? Have you decided to get a divorce and are ready to begin the process? Or are you in the middle of a divorce and looking for new representation or just a little extra help?
- Your options. Based on what you’ve shared, we’ll give you our initial thoughts on paths you can consider taking at this stage of your divorce, and we’ll define each route for you so you leave with a clear understanding of the process.
- A brief overview of Hello Divorce’s free resources and tools. We’ll give you an overview of what our site has to offer, and we’ll recommend free articles, checklists, and worksheets on our site that we think could be helpful to you, right away.
- Your questions. Lay ‘em on us. We’ve been doing this for a long time, so we’ve got lots of answers and advice.
- Next steps. We’ll end the call with specific action items. Then we’ll follow up with links to all the resources, articles, and worksheets we discussed.
