Introducing Unlink: The Oregon‑Smart Way to Divorce Amicably

Divorce doesn’t need to be a long court battle. In Oregon, uncontested divorces, where both spouses agree on all issues, are significantly less expensive and faster than contested ones. Unlike Pacific Family Law Firm’s upcoming platform, which uses decades of family law experience and tailored technology to make uncontested divorce even more straightforward, accurate, and secure.

The Advantages of an Uncontested Divorce

Uncontested divorces are different because there’s no fight over property, custody, support or other issues. This cooperation leads to several concrete benefits:

  • Lower cost. A contested divorce often costs tens of thousands due to attorney fees and multiple court hearings. An uncontested divorce typically costs just a fraction of that; one estimate suggests between $1,500 and $3,000 in Oregon , compared with $7,000–$15,000 (or more) for contested cases .
  • Faster resolution. When spouses agree, there’s no need for lengthy trials or hearings. Uncontested divorces can often be finalized in one to three months , whereas contested divorces may drag on for months or even years.
  • Reduced stress and conflict. Working together on a dissolution usually lowers tension and emotional strain. In contrast, contested divorces can increase conflict, especially when children or complex assets are involved.
  • Control over outcomes. In an uncontested divorce, spouses craft their own agreement rather than leaving decisions to a judge. This flexibility can lead to more tailored parenting plans and property divisions that reflect each family’s needs.

Why Generic Court Forms Fall Short

While Oregon courts offer do-it-yourself packets, they are intentionally broad to cover many situations. They often include unnecessary sections, use vague language, and may accidentally create conflicting provisions. Mistakes can lead to delays, cause disputes, or even threaten your settlement. Many couples who use generic forms still end up hiring attorneys later to fix errors.

Enter Unlink: Smart, Attorney‑Authored Divorce

Unlink is Pacific Family Law Firm’s answer to the pitfalls of generic forms. It’s not just another online divorce service. It’s an Oregon-specific, attorney-designed platform that combines human expertise with carefully managed AI. Here’s why it stands out:

  1. Guided, dynamic intake. You answer clear, Oregon‑specific questions through a friendly interface powered by proprietary conditional logic. The system adapts to your situation, so you only provide information relevant to your case—no wading through irrelevant sections.
  2. Attorney‑curated language. All provisions are authored by experienced Oregon family‑law attorneys. That means your petition, judgment, and parenting plan mirror how Oregon courts expect to see terms.
  3. Conflict‑proofing via AI. Our AI, trained exclusively on Oregon law and overseen by lawyers, spots contradictions—like mismatches between custody terms and tax allocations—before you sign.
  4. Attorney review & e‑signature. Every packet is reviewed by an Oregon attorney for completeness and compliance. You sign electronically and receive a single, court‑ready PDF.
  5. Court‑ready output and transparent pricing. Documents are formatted for filing; you never have to guess what to submit. Flat‑fee packages start at $1,995 (no children) or $2,495 (with children), with optional attorney consultation or full‑service filing add‑ons. The mandatory $301 court filing fee is a pass‑through.
  6. Full‑service option. Prefer not to deal with clerks? Our Full‑Service Filing & Shepherding add‑on provides e‑filing, tracks acceptance and service, cures clerk rejections, and monitors your case until a judge signs the final judgment.
  7. Security & privacy. Sensitive data (birthdates, Social Security numbers) is encrypted and never sent to external AI. Attorney oversight ensures strict adherence to professional ethics and Oregon privacy laws.

A Better Experience for Families

Unlink isn’t just about forms—it’s designed to dynamically support families through every step:

  • Children & custody. If you have children, the platform guides you through custody choices (joint vs. sole) and parenting-time schedules, incorporating Oregon’s best practices and the statutory factors outlined in ORS 107.137. Parenting plans are offered in clear, plain‑English options to reduce future conflict.
  • Property & finances. Our intake captures only what Oregon courts require—real property, vehicles, retirement accounts, cryptocurrencies, debts, and spousal support—presented in a uniform format. You decide how to divide assets with clear choices (percentage, dollar amount, or award) and the system drafts appropriate clauses.
  • Scope guardrails. Flat‑fee packages apply when both spouses will sign a stipulated judgment and there are no contested hearings. If complications arise, Unlink pauses and explains the next steps before work continues.

How to Get Started

  1. Start your divorce. Begin the guided intake at a time convenient for you. Each answer refines the subsequent questions.
  2. Review and sign. After completing the intake, an attorney reviews your packet. You’ll receive documents for an electronic signature.
  3. File your case. Download county‑specific filing instructions and submit your paperwork yourself, or select Full‑Service Filing & Shepherding and we’ll handle filing, service, and tracking.

With uncontested divorces already offering lower costs and faster resolutions, Unlink enhances these advantages through expert‑drafted documents, smart technology, and lawyer oversight. It’s the Oregon‑specific tool couples have been waiting for—making it easier to dissolve a marriage amicably, maintain cooperation, and move forward.
