A: You need to physically separated (not living together) for one year to be eligible to file for divorce. If you want an agreement regarding the children to be part of the divorce, the easiest way to do that is enter into a parenting or separation agreement. While some attorney's still charge $2500 or more for this (and some people are still stupid enough to pay it) - a fully comprehensive separation agreement for your average couple can be done for a flat rate fee of $250. The divorce itself also is relatively inexpensive and a standard uncontested divorce can be done for a total flat rate fee of $395.
