FAST-LEGAL DIVORCE INFORMATION
The FAST divorce service we offer is the GLOBAL DIVORCE . It's certified legal and recognized all over the world. It's nick-named the "Celebrity" divorce, because so many celebrities have used it to get divorced faster and easier than they could in the USA. The nick-name also comes from the fact that, until recently, it was so expensive that only celebrities and other people with plenty of money could afford it. Some advantages of the Global DIVORCES are: FAST AND EASY!
Your divorce can be granted in as little as 1 day from the time we receive all your paperwork. All you do is fill out and mail your information. We do the rest! COMPLETE AGREEMENT NOT REQUIRED!
Of course you should settle all your obligations and responsibilities by agreement when possible; BUT, a Global Divorce can be granted even when an agreement is not possible. In such a case, it simply restores your status as a "single" person and allows later settlement of all other issues. OK WHEN SPOUSE IS "UNAVAILABLE"!
Don't know where your spouse is? No problem! Divorces granted by various states usually require publication in a local newspaper and may take a year or more to be granted. However, the Global Divorce can still be granted based on your statement that your spouse is no longer available. The process takes days - not months. KIDS OK - PROPERTY & DEBTS OK!
When both parties agree, virtually all marital issues may be settled by a written agreement called a Marital Settlement Agreement(MSA) which is enforceable through state courts. This includes matters related to custody, support, property and debts. YOU MAINTAIN FULL CONTROL!
When you go through state court, all matters are decided by the judge. Even if you and your spouse agree on everything, the judge has the authority to change any agreements you make - and he often does! Dominican, Haitian and Mexican courts believe that when two adults agree on matters, the proper business of the court is to simply ratify what has been agreed to. Therefore, YOU retain full control of ALL matters related to custody, property, debts divorceCERTIFIED LEGAL!
After your Global Divorce is granted, your Final Decree of Divorce is sent for validation to the Consulates Office. Global divorces are widely accepted and has been used by such well known people as Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley, Sylvester Stalone, Mike Tyson and many others. INEXPENSIVE!
When you compare the Global Divorce to divorces granted in most states, provinces in the US, Canada or the UK you'll probably be surprised to learn that it's price is quite competitive... especially when you consider the "hidden" costs of state divorces. When pricing in state divorces, one must remember to consider the cost of notarizing documents, certified mailings,service of documents by a process server or law officer, transportationto and from one or possibly even several court sessions, parking fees and any court ordered counseling... all of this is, of course in addition to legal fees and court costs. Also, there's the matter of your time. With the Global Divorce, the whole process only requires that you fill out and mail a few papers. You can be done with your part in a matter of minutes instead of hours - days - weeks or even months! When you consider ALL the costs, Global Divorce is remarkably inexpensive! [BACK TO INDEX]
We understand that it's not always easy for a client to come up with $1,890 or more in a single chunk. We also understand that speed is not always essential. Therefore, we have developed a program that allows you to "lay-away" your divorce and make payments that fit your budget while saving money as well. Here's how it works.
You mail an initial payment of $1000 or more and we credit the amount to your account. By doing this, you lock in the current lay-away price for the next 12 months. You also will have your divorce processed, granted and 24 hour notification expressed to you. You can then pay the balance of $890 at your leisure.
From that time on, you mail in pay ment s whenever it's convenient. We credit each payment to your account until you've accumulated enough to fully pay for your divorce.
Since we set up your file and begin your paperwork immediately upon receipt of your first payment, the first $100 is NOT refundable. However, all amounts paid in excess of the first $100, ARE 100% REFUNDABLE!
Once the full amount is accumulated, we expedite your paperwork and have you divorced within 1-2 business days from the date we received your last payment.
Sound too goo d to be true? Well, there are some things that you should know. One is that the minimum payment we will accept is $100. All accounts are also subject to an account maintenance charge of $25 per month starting with the second month.
And that's it! So, if you're sure you want to get divorced but don't have enough money to get started, the lay-away plan allows you to get divorced the easy way - no strain - no hassles - and within a payment framework that you control. We think it's a pretty good deal for folks that have to function on a budget.
Speaking of budget, what is the current price for the lay-away divorce, you ask?
How about a low $1,395 for a mutual Consent divorce and $1,495.00 for a Unilateral divorce? Why, heck, that's cheaper than you would expect to pay for many state divorces! So, why mess with judges and court appearances when the Global Divorce allows you to accomplish the same purpose without the hassles and such at a competitive price? Why NOT choose easy instead of hectic? [BACK TO INDEX]
How is this process legalized?
All Global Divorces will be processed as follows;
a) Issued and signed by a
judge,
b) his signature certified by the court clerk,
c) the Clerk's signature certified by the
"Procuraduria", from Santo Domingo of the
Dominican Republic or granting jurisdiction
d) the decree translated to English by an official
Judicial Interpreter,
e) the Interpreter's signature certified again by the
Procuraduria, of the Dominican Republic or granting
jurisdiction
f) The Procuraduria's signature verified by the Consular
Section of the Ministry of Foreign Relations ,
g) The Ministry's signature certified by the
corresponding International Consulate (U.S. for example)
This takes place in accord with the " verification
of the Judges signature" with a set of formalities
to comply with "International Conventions of
Signature Authenticity"
You get a global divorce through the Dominican Republic,
Mexico or Haiti, any State in the U.S., Canada or any
other jurisdiction and it's legal as long as it was
properly done according to the laws of the jurisdiction
where it was done and it's also considered valid.
Thank you for visiting our website. You
ask a very good question.
The answer is, of course it's legal. Legal and illegal,
however are terms that are not very relevant. Legal and
illegal apply more to criminal law. For something to be
"illegal" you have to break a specific law. For
instance, if you rob someone you have committed an
illegal act by breaking the specific law against robbery.
On the other hand, any thing you do which does NOT
violate a specific law is considered a legal act.
There is no SPECIFIC LAW against getting divorced - in
the Doiminican Republic, Mexico, Haiti or anywhere else -
so there is no question about legality. We think what you
intend to ask is this "Is the divorce valid?" -
and that's a much more interesting question.
The thing that must be remembered here is that we are
dealing with an area of CIVIL LAW - NOT CRIMINAL LAW. In
criminal law things are cut and dried - you're guilty of
you're not guilty. In civil law NOTHING is cut and dried;
the only question that applies is "what was the
ruling on this single, specific case"?
Here's an example that will give you an idea of just how
complicated civil law can be. There was a fellow in
California who went to Nevada and lived there the
required 6 weeks before applying for a divorce. The
divorce was routinely heard by a Nevada court that ruled
that he met the residency requirements and granted the
divorce. Shortly after the divorce, the fellow got
married. A short time after that, he decided to return to
California. When he got back to California, the wife he
had divorced filed suit in California court asking the
court to declare his Nevada divorce invalid because he
didn't reside in Nevada long enough to indicate he
"intended to make Nevada his permanant
residence." Now, although the Nevada court had
already ruled that he HAD met the requirements necessary
to indicate he intended to make Nevada his permanant
residence, the California court dissagreed and declared
his Nevada divorce invalid. The end result is that, in
Nevada - to this day - he is considered divorced from his
first wife and married to his second wife. On the other
hand, In California, he is considered to still be married
to his first wife!
In addition, his first wife attempted to have him
arrested for bigamy since he was married to her and
another woman at the same time. However, the state of
California declined prosecution because the bigamy
statute is basically a fraud statute designed to prevent
people from getting married to a second partner while
knowing that a first marriage has not been dissolved.
Therefore, it was the opinion of the state of California
that the guy was NOT guilty of bigamy because he
legitimately BELIEVED he was divorced from the first wife
at the time he married the second wife. What a can of
worms!
So, here's the deal. All the junk (and it is junk because
it's really not relevant) that is talked about in the
information against Dominican, Mexican, or Haitian
divorce is correct in theory. But all it really says is
that, IF CONTESTED, a Global divorce MIGHT be declared
INVALID. Yeah, well, so might a Nevada divorce, a
Canadian divorce or any other divorce - in theory.
However, the assertion that Global divorce is generally
not valid or accepted, is just pure bull.
Sure, there are some court cases where a specific court,
on a specific day, for a specific case found that a
Dominican divorce was not valid. However, there are also
numerous cases where a court ruled that the divorce was
valid. But the fact is, that thousands of Global divorces
are granted every year, go uncontested and are routinely
accepted as valid. We have had clients present a divorce
decrees to IRS, Social Security, Immigration and
Naturalization and about every other agency and
jurisdiction you can name and have the divorce acepted
with NO PROBLEM.
So what's all the controversy about? It's about theory -
the kind of thing lawyers just love to argue about. See,
in civil law, you can argue a case from any position and
you can always sight previous court cases where the court
decided the issue in your favor because, if it's a
question that's been around for awhile - like Global
Divorce has - there are always hundreds of court cases
that were decided pro and con. That's the nature of civil
law.
Now, in the real world, it works like this:
You get a divorce through the Dominican Republic, Mexico,
Haiti or any State in the U.S., Canada or any other
jurisdiction and it's legal as long as it was properly
done according to the laws of the jurisdiction where it
was done and it's also considered valid. In the case of
the divorce I do through the Dominican Republic, the
Consulate even attaches a statement that says the divorce
is worthy of "Full Faith and Credit",or for
Mexican Divorces, a US judge authenticates the Divorce
and orders it. At that point it's as valid as any other
divorce. And, if no one ever challenges the divorce in
court, it remains forever valid.
But what happens if someone DOES challenge the validity
of a specific Global divorce? THAT'S when you get into
the whole can of worms called civil law. Anything can
happen - whether you're talking about Dominican, Mexican,
Haiti divorce or German divorce or any other type of
legal action. The point is, that Global divorces are just
as valid - not more so - not less so - than a divorce
issued by any other jurisdiction. They can all be
challenged and a court can rule anything the judge
decides is correct on that particular day for that
particular divorce. However, that particular decision
DOES NOT effect any other divorce - only the one being
challenged.
Okay, so you get a legal, Global divorce which, in the
opinion of the US Consulate in the Dominican Republic or
a US Judge which is a valid and worthy of "Full
Faith and Credit" . . . that remains the case
forever - unless somene wants to male a big deal and
argue it in court. That never happens with 99.9% of all
Dominican divorces and the divorce is routinely honored
under COMITY (by the way, the assertion that a state is
not REQUIRED to honor the divorce under comity is
correct; what they don't tell you - and therefore mislead
you about - is that states almost always DO accept
Dominican, Mexican or Haitian divorces as kind of a
courtesy).
Anyway, back to challenging Global divorce. Who can do
that? The answer that any agency or jurisdiction that
it's presented to can say that they won't accept it or
that they believe it's not valid. That however does NOT
make the divorce invalid - it just means that they don't
accept it - it's still valid in EVERY OTHER
JUSRISDICTION!!!
