"A Divorce Fast" = "A Divorce Wrong"
South Carolina Lawyers Weekly reported in its January 19, 2009, edition that "A Divorce Fast" has withdrawn its business from South Carolina after numerous complaints from its customers and an investigation from our state Attorney General's office.
This company advertised in the attorneys section of telephone books in numerous cities around the state (including Greenville and Spartanburg), offering an email service that purported to allow people to download divorce forms. Apparently, it charged fees from $125 to $500, but it then failed or refused to provide follow-up service after the sale to its customers.
Even worse, the forms that were downloaded were often inadequate or incomplete, which resulted in its clients basically wasting their money and still being left trying to represent themselves. As is the case with many of these "money saving schemes," I suspect that many people end up paying much more trying to resolve the problems caused by their attempt to save a few dollars in the beginning.
According to the article, "A Divorce Fast" has agreed to reimburse all of its customers in South Carolina that the Attorney General's office investigators can locate within a year. If you or someone you know has fallen victim to this company, you can contact the Unauthorized Practice of Law Section of the South Carolina Attorney General's office at (803) 734-3606.
