The law says you have the right to represent yourself. You can do it yourself, and if it’s done right, you can save a lot of money. If you make a mistake, you have a terrible mess. We constantly see people who have purchased “KITS” over the internet to do their own legal work. Sometimes the “KITS” cost more than most competent lawyers would charge. Often, the forms are generated in another state, and do not work in Texas. This is particularly true if you have children. You may end up with an unenforceable order.
