Where can one find free legal divorce forms?

Answer 1

Where you find legal forms depends on where you live. Most court clerks have forms available, but you have to check with the clerk first, and then go to the courthouse to pick them up.

Most states have at least some forms available online for download; some are in statewide databases, some are by county, some are from individual courts. They are the official forms used by the courts, and they're nearly always free.

For example, check the related link below - it has links to all the downloadable court-supplied forms in New York by statewide websites, then by multiple-county websites, then by individual county and specific courts within each county.

If you're not in New York, go to the "Find court records in other states" box in the upper right and choose your state, then go to the "Find court resources by category" box and choose "Court Forms and Other Info." CourtReference has a page like this for every state.

Answer 2

You can download free legal forms from the internet in most states for use in most courts, but it depends on where you live and what court is hearing your case. For example, if you're in New York, you can find all the available forms at the first related link below; just look for the link that goes to the type of form you need, and the correct court. Most forms are available in the statewide section, or you can scroll down to your county and see what's available there.

The second related link below is an example for Nebraska. CourtReference has a page of form links like this for every state. Go to the Choose a State box in the upper right and select your state, then go to the Choose a Court Resource Category box in the upper middle and select Court Forms and Other Info.

There are many sites on the Internet that have legal forms available for download or by mail. However, you should be awared that the forms they offer are not always accepted by the court in which you need to file. The best way to ensure that you receive the correct forms is to contact the office of the court clerk of the court in which you wish to file your petition, (small claims, circuit court, superior court, etc.).
