Opportunity BasketAmicable Separation Facilitation Service (In-Person & Hybrid)
A staffed mediation and document-preparation service that guides couples through structured separation using trained facilitators (not lawyers) who help couples negotiate terms, complete state-specific separation agreements, and file uncontested divorces without court involvement. Couples meet in person or hybrid sessions with a neutral facilitator who uses a proven negotiation framework, then hands off to a paralegal or legal-document automation tool to generate the final filing package.

Value Proposition
Reduces total cost to $1,500–$3,500 per couple (vs. $10k–$30k adversarial divorce), eliminates court delays (30–90 days vs. 6–18 months), preserves co-parenting relationships, and gives couples control over outcomes instead of handing it to a judge. Removes the intimidation and expense barrier that traps people in bad marriages.
Target Audience
Married couples earning $40k–$150k/year with minor children or shared assets, who want to separate amicably but can't afford $5k–$15k per spouse in traditional divorce legal fees, and who live in states with uncontested divorce filing options.
Key Features

- Facilitated negotiation sessions using interest-based mediation (focus on needs, not positions)
- Custody and support calculator built on state-specific guidelines (adjustable by couple agreement)
- And more, with full implementation detail...
