Can I do this myself with the court forms?

Yes. Montana courts provide free dissolution forms. You can complete the packet, pay the filing fee, file the case, and manage the steps yourself. The Montana court self-help pages list the forms and explain the basic process.

Doing it yourself can work if you have time to learn the requirements and both spouses can agree on every item. You are responsible for choosing the correct forms, completing them accurately, arranging notarization, filing, and responding to any court requests.

DoUsPart is a different path. You answer guided questions. The documents are generated from attorney-reviewed templates. You review previews as you go. Remote notarization and the court filing fee are included, and the firm files the case. The flat fee is $1,600 (no minor children) or $1,900 (with a parenting plan).

Other websites sell forms at a low starting price. Help, notarization, and filing are often extra, and you may still be the person who files. A traditional attorney is the right choice when you cannot agree or the case is complicated; that route usually costs more.
