Answer s for "how to file?"  (2) (You must be logged in to answer)
I did a yellow page search for you for paralegals in your area - there aren't any close listed - but yuo can give them a call to see if they can refer you to an attorney's office closer to you that might have a paralegal that can help you - or you can travel the 50 or so miles to meet with one of these...

you can also check your local court house website to see if they have a pro se section.

I called our county courthouse and they were able to refer me to our state's court website to print up our divorce papers.  And it's free!  Are you guys able to agreement on everything?  If so, I would try calling your county courthouse and asking if they have someplace you can get the legal forms to do your own paperwork.  If you guys can't reach an agreement on everything you may need to get a lawyer.  Good luck!
