First Online Resource to Combine Local Divorce Information and Community Support Now Available to Consumers
Divorcenet.com Provides Industry's Most Comprehensive Online Divorce Resource
Newton, MA - August 16, 2005 – Divorcenet.com (www.divorcenet.com), the leading online divorce resource, announced today new features to give consumers grappling with divorce the best legal information and support. Divorcenet.com delivers legal information more efficiently than ever to the average consumer, allowing them to make informed decisions. With new, easy-to-use search capabilities by zip code, called DivorceZip, and 'blogging,' consumers can now find local lawyers and valuable news and legal information.
Reliable, affordable divorce information is a scarce commodity, even for the affluent. Many people want to add to the quality of their legal representation, or make informed decisions about alternative dispute resolution like mediation and collaborative law, but lack the information and resources to do so. Also, divorce and family law differ from state to state, so it is important for people to be able to easily find local resources that will give them the most pertinent information for their situation.
Using its new DivorceZip service, consumers can access the industry's first zip code search that combines both legal and related professionals, such as financial and mental health experts. Also, Divorcenet.com's new 'blogging' feature allows consumers to access relevant news and the free exchange of divorce advice given by professionals on legal issues surrounding divorce including child support, custody and visitation, prenuptial issues, property division, military divorce, fathers' rights and others. Easy access to accurate information can help minimize conflict, reduce anxiety and eliminate expensive mistakes.
Many online divorce resources are produced by non-experts based on their personal divorce experience, or by businesses selling information. Divorcenet.com was founded by practicing divorce lawyers to provide free state-specific information written in plain English for the average person. Divorcenet.com also offers assistance to those considering divorce. The "Stages of Divorce" feature can help people make well-informed decisions about whether to end their marriage, and provides advice on how to plan the process to ease potential emotional and financial difficulties. Divorcenet.com's online community, with over 40,000 members, chat rooms, and special events, allows consumers to participate in real-time discussions both with experts and with other people who share similar divorce experiences offering much-needed support through difficult emotional times.
"Divorcenet.com has grown out of more than 10 years of experience providing divorce-related information online, and we are a trusted ally for people weathering the storm of divorce," said Steven Fuchs, managing partner at Divorcenet.com. "Divorce is by nature a stressful situation. We hope that by combining good, easy-to-find information with community support we can reduce the angst, expense and conflict associated with this difficult process."
