Just start with our simple questionnaire, and we’ll provide you instructions for each step of the way.
Finally, you don’t have to worry - our process is 100% secure. We protect your information and nothing is filed until you submit the divorce papers to the courthouse yourself. Filing for divorce in Hawaii with the Onlinedivorce.com system can be a simple solution to a difficult situation.
Filing:
When you use OnlineDivorce.com, we help you fill out your divorce paperwork using a simple online questionnaire. You can fill it out alone or with the assistance of your spouse. Then, you will need to get a signature from your spouse and you can file the divorce forms with your local court. In Hawaii, you will typically file with the courthouse in the county in which you currently reside. If a petitioner is not currently a resident, but a defendant is, divorce is typically filed in the county where the defendant resides.
The actual filing process is explained in our detailed court-filing instructions that we provide along with your completed divorce forms. You can also obtain assistance from your local courthouse by calling or stopping by.
After the initial filing, you may need to follow up if there are any issues with your documents. When you use OnlineDivorce.com, we allow you to make small adjustments to your forms as requested by the court at no additional charge. Our goal is to help you obtain your divorce with as little hassle and stress as possible using our online divorce documents preparation service.
Residency:
Every state has specific requirements where divorcing couples must establish residency within the state they are divorcing. Hawaii is no exception.
To file for divorce in Hawaii, one or the other spouse must have lived in the state for at least three months prior to filing. The divorce will not be granted until a spouse has lived in the state for at least six months.
There are many ways to prove that residency has been established. The easiest way is if one or both spouses have a valid and in-date Hawaii driver’s license, ID card or voter’s registration card which was issued at least six months before filing for divorce. If this is not the case, it may be possible to establish residency, by having someone who knows you or your spouse testify that you have lived in the state for at least six months. Additionally, it may be possible to use an Affidavit of Corroborating Witness form, and it should serve as proof you’ve lived in the state a minimum of six months.

OnlineDivorce reviews
Wesley H., Missouri
I started my divorce on my own, spending loads of money on lawyer visits in the beginning.
So I decided to google for other ways and using this site was so much more simple!
James V., Texas
I had a very successful business at the time. So, making sure I had the right forms was
very very important during my divorce. I was so surprised at how easy and smooth this process was.
Chloe J., Florida
After years of a tumultuous marriage, I finally decided that I needed to reclaim my life.
I was looking for how to go about it and came across this site and they simplified and made
the process of divorce easy for me. I never thought it would’ve been possible.
Will S., Colorado
Stress-free and easy! I was initially gonna hire a lawyer but I found online divorce the
next best option. No muss, no fuss divorce. No big legal words that I’d have to have read
10 times to understand!
Marco P., California
California is expensive and divorce can be even more expensive in the end but I can say
that this site payed everything out for me to follow, from child support to alimony.
My ex agreed to go this way as well so it was a much less expensive option for us.
Tamara B., Nevada
Because of the whole dissolution of the marriage, I was struggling with two children and
just in limbo with my husband at the time because of child support and alimony. I was a
stay-at-home mom for 10 years. I just want to say that this site helped me sort it out.
Thank you.
Theresa S., New York
I live in upstate NY and unfortunately one day I found myself in a situation for divorce.
I was all out of whack, needed answers to take action. Enough was enough so I did it on this
site. Everything was clear to understand, all forms and what to put in which box.
Livy B., Illinois
Onlinedivorce.com is the bomb! I mean, using it was so easy to follow. So, if you find
yourself in this situation do your divorce here if possible. Documents for all stages,
alimony, child support and all!

Custody of the child in Hawaii
In the state of Hawaii, Joint legal, joint physical or sole child custody can and will be awarded to either or both of the parents or another person entirely based upon what would be in the best interests of the child or children and upon the wishes of a sufficiently mature child. The parent who has previously had custody of the child in a happy and healthy home and is considered an overall proper parent, is assumed to be the preferred custodian. Joint custody is allowed if it is arranged in assurance of the child’s continuing contact with both parents. The court can order an official child custody investigation and report if it is deemed relevant to the particular case. Grandparents or other significant family members may be awarded visitation. Family violence which has been committed by a parent will raise the presumption that it would not be in the best interests of a child for the parent to have custody. There are not other specific factors for consideration set out in this statute. [Hawaii Revised Statutes; Title 571, Chapter 46].
Rules for child support in Hawaii
Hawaii’s standard child support rules and regulations will apply in almost every divorce case, barring extraordinary circumstances. Both parents’ gross incomes and some child related expenses will be considered as the child support is calculated. Child support continues until the child reaches age 18 and it may extend until the completion of secondary education in some cases.
The court can at times order both or either parents to provide child support in an equitable manner. Some of the factors that would be considered include:
Earnings and existing resources of parents;
The potential earnings and reasonable necessities as well as borrowing capacity of the parents;
The continuing needs of the children;
The amount of public aid the children could be eligible to receive without any child support;
Any additional dependents of the parents;
Incentives given to both parents to work;
Attempts to balance standards of living of the parents to avoid placing either parent below the poverty line;
Attempts at avoiding an extreme change in either parent’s income; and
If a parent with school-age children could work and chooses not to, 30 hours of minimum wage income would be added to that parent’s assumed income.
There are additional official Child Support Regulations set out in the state statute. [Hawaii Revised Statutes; Title 576D, Chapter 7 and Title 580, Chapter 47].

Rules for spousal support in Hawaii
Alimony, which is sometimes referred to as spousal support, is at times ordered by the court to help one spouse live and comfortably exist in a manner established during marriage after the divorce. Assistance may be decided together upon by the couple before filing or it may be awarded by the court in a contested marriage dissolution case.
The court can and will award maintenance to either spouse, for either a long-term or a short-term basis to help the receiving spouse to begin to support his or herself after the divorce. In Hawaii, Infidelity, or marital misconduct, is not a factor which is considered. The factors to be considered are:
The standard of living that the couple enjoyed during the course of the marriage;
The length of the marriage;
If the spouse who would pay support could meet his or her own needs while still providing support for the other spouse;
The ability of the spouse who seeks support to meet any needs on an independent basis;
A comparative financial picture of the spouses;
Overall needs of both spouses;
The current age of the spouses;
The overall conditions of the spouses;
The occupation of both of the spouses at the time of the marriage;
Any vocational skills as well as the employability of the party who seeks support and maintenance;
The assumed duration of such a need of the party who seeks maintenance;
Child support and custodial responsibilities;
The ability of the spouse who would pay support to support his or her self as well as still meeting the needs of the spouse who seeks support;
Other factors measure the financial condition of the spouses after the divorce; and
Any other reason that measures the overall financial picture of the spouses can help determine the final maintenance award. [Hawaii Revised Statutes; 580-47].
Property division in Hawaii
Hawaii is considered to be an “equitable distribution” state. The court will distribute all property of the two spouses, to include community, joint, and separate property, in a manner they believe to be equitable and just, based on the following factors:
The burdens which would be imposed upon the spouses for the benefit of a child or the children;
The position that each spouse will be in after the dissolution of the marriage;
The relative positions and abilities of the spouses;
The respective merits that the spouses present; and
Any and all other circumstances. [Hawaii Revised Statutes; 580-47].
In an uncontested case, the spouses may make property distribution decisions on their own, without the involvement of the court.
Offline and inconvenient process with attorney representation for each spouse.
Costly attorney fees resulting in unpredictable expenditures.
Overall lenghty and expensive way to go.
Attorney availability impacts completion time
Each spouse has to hire an attorney, which automatically doubles legal fees
Potential court battles adding to already high stress levels

We give the detailed and easy to follow step-by-step instructions for filing a divorce with the court - so a client knows exactly what to do to get his/her divorce finalized.

attorneys may charge less, however, if you live in a large city local attorneys may charge up to
$1000 per hour.
Basic Online Divorce Tools
At first glance using such sites may look like an easy way to go, but it may turn into additional
headaches for you. Some of the issues you may experience when dealing with basic online divorce
tools are:
long processing timeframes - do you like waiting?
inexperienced and poorly-trained customer support
not user-friendly technology
lack of guidance during the process
hidden fees, e.g. for any, even the simplest, revisions
outdated divorce forms causing court rejection
Did you know that some online divorce providers have virtual addresses in the US because they are
actually based in other countries? No wonder that some clients are provided with outdated divorce
forms that will be rejected by the court. Result? Those people lose their time and money. Lacking
professionalism, these services are not keeping up-to-date with the state forms updates.
Beware of fake reviews: with no experience and lack of quality service it’s common that some
post reviews by non-existent "customers".
