I have been separated from my ex for 4 years roughly. I called Jessica in Aug and by Dec I was divorced! She was tentative and explained everything to me anytime I had questions. She was always there day or night just a call or email away. Very professional service and very caring and sensitive. I would not hesitate to get her assistance again in the future. Thanks again to Jessica and staff for all their hard work!read more

We worked with Jessica to successfully obtain a divorce (dissolution of marriage) for my mother who's estranged husband was currently living out of state. She worked patiently with us to answer all of our questions, was professional the entire process, and quickly replied to any questions or inquiries that we had. We only had to go in once to see her, which was incredibly convenient for us - the rest of the time she communicated via email and responded timely to our requests.read more

Jessica and Michael made a really, really hard and sad experience a manageable one, mentally and financially. I cannot imagine how I could have handled figuring out what kind of paperwork was needed and other details on my own. They made everything very easy while being very supportive, which served to prevent an awful experience from becoming even more awful. I am extremely grateful for their help, and would recommend them to everyone.read more

You it was done very rude to me who paid the whole price of the divorce. The paralegal was a nightmare, the staff clueless, Michael George very rude after he got my money. If you are in a bind like me go someplace else. The stress level alone from these people was awful!! I walk away insulted!!!read more

Ms. Worley was prompt, professional and explained everything in complete simple terms, cause to me some of that legal wording and interpretation can get confusing. She answered every question I had through the process and kept me up to date on all of the filing and what was required from myself and the other party involved. She kept me informed of responces she received from the court, and what time frame was we were looking at. Excellent service and VERY affordable. I recommend her service to anyone who has the unfortunate case of filing for a divorce but in my case it was handled faster than expected and was I VERY happy when completed. Thank you Jessica Worley and much luck with the success of your well run practice. Sincerely, Mr. Brian Haagread more

Jessica made my divorce process completely seamless. She always got back to my emails the same day and they were very thorough. I would have been entirely lost had I not used this service. I had no hiccups. Literally all I had to do was provide her with all of the information and then show up to court to sign the final papers. Couldn't have made this stressful process any easier. Very professional and understanding.read more

Jessica and team made a very difficult situation so much easier and as stress-free as it could possibly be. They handle everything for you, and are professional, responsive, quick and most importantly... They really understand the entire process and are able to explain things in simple terms about what happens at each milestone. Also, the documents they produce are extremely well done. WAY better than anything you would be able to produce off the self-help kits that leave you wide open with loopholes or overlooked clarity that is required by the courts. Do yourself a favor... Let people that know all the legalese and understand this process handle the paperwork for you. You will not be soooo glad you did. You never even have to deal with the court... I can highly recommend Jessica and the Affordable Arizona Divorce team!read more

Going through a divorce is not easy, but my now ex-husband and I agreed it was the right thing to do and wanted to make it as painless as possible. Jessica was exactly what we were looking for, we met once and she took care of the rest keeping us updated on what we needed to do and where we were in the process. I will definitely use her for her other services and have referred her to friends.read more

Jessica was beyond helpful. She made a very difficult time in our lives so much easier. Fast and affordable. I had to start my life over in a new state with my son, which was very expensive, so not having to spend thousands and thousands in lawyer fees made the transition that much easier. She always made a point to respond quickly, called and emailed me to keep me updated, and explained the entire process until I understood everything fully. Thank you for taking the time to make this painful part of my life so much easier. Always thankful for you!read more
