Plus, our $99 price includes the option to schedule a phone conference with the legal professional assigned to your case (your Case Manager) to walk you through each step of the process and answer any questions you may have.

Many other services start hitting you up for additional fees shortly after you sign up (and after already paying their initial fee). These additional fees often include "storage fees" to maintain your information or monthly charges just so you may continue to access your own documents. However, we will never ask you to pay any additional fees. With ReliableDivorce.com, you will always have unlimited access to your account so that, at any time, you may make changes to your information and generate new documents regardless of how long ago you signed up for our service.
Getting an Online Divorce in Nebraska
Our online divorce service is designed for spouses who want a simple, cheap and fast divorce in Nebraska. The key factor to determine whether an online divorce will work for your situation is that both spouses can agree to the terms of the divorce, including the division of property, division of debts and any child-related issues, if applicable.
ReliableDivorce.com makes the online divorce process easy and affordable for virtually every budget. Based on your answers to our questionnaire, we determine all the necessary documents you will need and the documents are prepared as required for the court’s approval. We provide you step-by-step written instructions beginning with how to file your divorce papers and all the way through how to finalize your divorce.
We have spent more than 15 years helping people file for and complete their divorce. Unlike many other online divorce services, our services don’t end once you file your initial divorce papers. We also want to make sure you are easily able to finalize your divorce as quickly as Nebraska law allows. We understand that even with step-by-step instructions to guide you through the divorce process, it can still be overwhelming. That’s why our service continues even after you have your completed divorce papers in hand. Included with our service is the option to schedule a phone consultation with your case manager who can answer any questions you may have or even walk you through each step of the process if necessary.
The bottom line is that if you and your spouse can agree on the terms of your divorce, then an online divorce is the fastest, easiest and least expensive option to dissolve your marriage. Whether you have children, own a home or own other property, as long as you and your spouse can reach an agreement on all such issues, then you are eligible to use our online divorce services to file your divorce in Nebraska.

Uncontested Divorce in Nebraska
An uncontested divorce is one in which both spouses have reached an agreement on all the major issues, such as property division, division of debt, child custody, child support, and spouse support.
A contested divorce in one in which the spouses cannot reach an agreement on the major issues and, as a result, the court will have to decide the final outcome on the disputed issues.
In either type of divorce, the process starts by one spouse filing for divorce.
Benefits to an Uncontested Divorce
-
Save Money. Spouses save a significant amount of money in an uncontested divorce versus a contested divorce. Instead of paying the high attorney’s fees that accompany a contested divorce, that money stays in the parties’ pockets.
-
Save Time. Because the spouses have already reached an agreement on the important issues, the paperwork is stream-lined and the parties don’t have to spend time attending multiple court hearings and formal negations that can take many months or even years to complete.
-
Save Mental Health. Fighting your divorce out in court adds additional stress to an already difficult situation. An uncontested divorce results in a much easier and less stressful legal process.
We created our Nebraska online divorce service to maximize these benefits. ReliableDivorce.com provides the lowest price online divorce service in the market with the fastest results. You receive your divorce papers immediately after completing our online questionnaire so you can file your divorce today or any other day you choose.
How to File for Divorce Without a Lawyer
Residency Requirement: If the spouses were married in Nebraska and at least one spouse currently resides in the state, then there is no minimum residency requirement and a divorce action may be filed at any time. If spouses were married outside Nebraska, then at least one spouse must have lived in the state for 365 days prior to filing for divorce. [Nebraska Code § 42-349].
Divorce papers may be filed in the county where either spouse currently resides. [Nebraska Code § 42-348].
Detailed court-filing instructions are included with your completed divorce papers, so that you know how the process works.
Our Nebraska online divorce service makes it easy to file for divorce without a lawyer. There is no requirement that you have a lawyer to file for divorce in Nebraska. In fact in many courts, more than half of all the divorces filed are completed without lawyers. Once you sign up to use our online divorce service, you simply fill out our online questionnaire to begin your divorce paperwork. It can either be filled out on your own or with your spouse's help. We provide you with all the paperwork needed to file and complete your divorce along with detailed instructions for every step of the process.
The first step of the process is to ensure you meet the state's residency requirements to file for divorce in Nebraska.
Grounds for Divorce
Nebraska is a true no-fault divorce state since an irretrievably broken marriage is the only valid grounds for divorce in Nebraska.
Only one spouse needs to assert this ground. However, the quickest way to get through the divorce process is for both parties to certify in writing that the marriage is irretrievably broken.
Child Custody and Visitation
Legal Custody in Nebraska
Legal custody refers to who makes or participates in the major decisions regarding the raising of the child.
Legal custody is determined based on what is in the child's best interest.
[Nebraska Code § 42-364].
Joint Legal Custody is where both parents have the right to participate in making the major decisions affecting the child.
Sole Legal Custody is where only one parent has the right to make decisions affecting the child.
In Nebraska, courts generally favor joint legal custody, but not necessarily joint or equal physical custody of a child.
Physical Custody in Nebraska
Physical custody says who the children will primarily reside with and the other parent will have visitation as discussed below.
In Nebraska, the non-custodial parent generally has the same visitation rights regardless of whether sole custody or joint custody is ordered in the divorce decree. There are exceptions to this general rule of course, such as when there is a history of domestic violence.
Visitation
Visitation can be any schedule agreed upon by both parents and can be changed at any time provided both parents are in agreement. Basically, the parents are in control of visitation provided they both agree to it and it is in the best interest of the child. If the parents cannot reach an agreement on visitation then the court will require the parents to follow a specific schedule that is determined by the court. The state provides guidelines on visitation and many parents find it easier to just go by the standard guideline visitation schedule. This will be explained in more detail in your divorce papers.
Child Support
Child support is set based on the state-mandated guidelines. Using a Nebraska child support calculator is best for determining the amount of child support to be paid. The child support calculator uses the child support guidelines prescribed by Nebraska law. In the event that you and your spouse cannot agree on this issue, the court will use the same calculation as the basis for determining the support obligation. Our online divorce service provides you the guidelines and a child support calculator during your questionnaire.
Child support obligation in Nebraska ends when the child reaches age 19, marries, or is emancipated, whichever occurs first. [Nebraska Statute §§ 42-371.01, 43-2101].
Nebraska Divorce Forms
Our Nebraska forms are guaranteed to be approved by the court. Our software determines what forms are needed and how to correctly complete the forms based on the answers you provide when completing our online questionnaire. Our software is updated anytime there is a change in the Nebraska divorce laws. Our service makes getting an online divorce as seamless as possible and at a price that meets every budget.
Nebraska Divorce - FAQ
How long will my divorce take?
Short Answer: 70-90 days.
Detailed Answer: Nebraska has a mandatory 60-day waiting period that begins when the initial petition is filed. This means the court cannot finalize any divorce until after this 60-day waiting period has expired. However, the actual time it takes will largely depend on how quickly you and your spouse complete and file all the necessary paperwork and the judge's schedule. Assuming there are no major hurdles, it is reasonable to expect your divorce to be finalized 70-90 days after filing the initial papers.
What documents are needed to file for divorce in Nebraska?
Short Answer: 1) Complaint for Dissolution of Marriage, 2) Vital Statistics Certificate, 3) Confidential Employment & Health Insurance Information, and 4) Social Security Numbers, Gender & Birth Date(s) Form.
