Divorce in Ontario

 What Are Online Divorce Kits?

Overview of Templates and Tools

Online divorce kits often come with pre-filled legal forms, checklists, and step-by-step instructions. They are designed to guide individuals through the process of filing for divorce, particularly in cases that are uncontested and straightforward. The kits may include:

  • Application for divorce forms
  • Financial disclosure templates
  • Parenting plan worksheets
  • Sample separation agreement clauses
  • Filing and service instructions

However, these materials are usually generic and not tailored to Ontario’s specific legal nuances or your personal situation.
