If its a contested divorce then you’ll have no choice but to get a lawyer to get the divorce finalized. If its uncontested or agreed upon then you can do the divorce yourself, or use a service to help you.
The basic steps are prepare or have docs prepared, you file them at the courthouse then serve a copy to your spouse. You’ll attend a court hearing and wait any mandatory waiting period if required.
