A: Divorce is not free. There is a filing fee for each case. If you want to file without an attorney, you can do that, but there is a fee to file, which varies depending on which county you are in.
A: No. It would not be free. Additionally, you mention the divorce being from TN. If it is to be a TN divorce, you should direct your question to the TN attorneys on Justia. The laws of GA and TN are different.
A: There are some fees you will have to pay to be able to get a divorce, but you are not obligated to use an attorney if you don’t want to pay for one.
