Divorcepath includes a searchable library of court forms, precedents, and related documents for family law workflows. Documents are generated from the client file so your team can avoid repetitive re-entry and move faster from matter data to filing-ready output.
Here is the basic workflow:
Step 1: Open the client file
Start in the client file you want to work from and select Documents & Forms in the matter sidebar. The document workflow uses the matter data already stored in the file to populate forms and drafting fields.
Step 2: Create a new document
Choose Create court form, Draft agreement, or Create statement on the Documents & Forms page. You can also click Create at the top of the sidebar and choose Court form, Agreement, or Financial statement.
Step 3: Choose the form or precedent
Choose the jurisdiction and court, then search by form name, number, or keyword to find the form you need. Agreement precedents, such as separation, marriage, and prenuptial agreements, are listed on the Create Agreement page in the same way. The details panel shows the selected form's court, revision date, and how complete the matter information is for that form.
Step 4: Generate the document
After selecting the document, click Create. Relevant matter data is merged into the form automatically, reducing manual entry and helping maintain consistency across documents. Leave Open in Editor switched on to open the new document as soon as it is ready.
Step 5: Review, edit, and export
Once generated, you can review the document in the Divorcepath Document Editor, continue editing, or download it as a Word document or PDF for Word-based work and filing preparation. Every generated document is saved to the matter's document library.
The goal of the document workflow is simple: use one connected source of truth for client data, then generate cleaner court forms and precedents with less duplicate work.
