You shouldn't need 18 months and $50,000 to make it official.

Most couples who come to us already agree on most of the big stuff. The problem isn't the divorce - it's not knowing how to get it across the finish line without things spiraling.

The Attorney Track

Two people hire lawyers. What was manageable turns into an 18-month battle costing $25,000-$50,000 each - and you end up with basically the agreement you would have reached yourselves.

The DIY Track

You try the pro se forms. It's a 50-plus-page packet not designed for non-lawyers. Miss one contingency - on the house, in the parenting plan - and that mistake follows you for years.

The Real Problem

It's not that you can't agree. Most couples who come to us already agree on most things. The problem is not knowing how to get it across the finish line - cleanly, quickly, and on your own terms.

HOW IT WORKS

There's a different way

Weekend Mediation lets two willing spouses reach a complete divorce agreement in a single weekend - with an experienced, neutral professional who helps you navigate the specifics without taking sides.

Then, you complete your documents. And you file. Simple as that.

STEP 01

Saturday: Mediation Session

You and your spouse meet with an experienced, neutral family law mediator via Zoom. By evening, most couples have a full agreement.

STEP 02

Sunday: Complete Forms

After mediation, complete the forms together.

STEP 03

Monday: File

File your agreement. Georgia requires a mandatory 31-day waiting period before a judge signs off - but your agreement is done, the clock is started, and you did it in a weekend.

Start with the free checklist.

Is Weekend Divorce the right fit?

We're not for everyone - and that's by design. Weekend Divorce works best in specific situations, and we'd rather tell you that upfront than waste your time.

Good Fit
Both spouses have agreed divorce is the direction
Both willing to be transparent about finances
Goal is a fair agreement, not a punishment
Ready to make decisions and move forward
Finances are relatively straightforward
No history of abuse or coercion
Not a Fit
One spouse is still undecided about divorce
Suspected hidden assets or financial dishonesty
Active restraining order or history of abuse
Serious power imbalance between spouses
Highly complex finances (military pension, RSUs)
Looking for legal advice from the mediator

Not sure? That's exactly what the discovery call is for. Our intake team will ask you a few quick questions and let you know honestly whether mediation is the right path - or point you to the service that is.

About Jeanette Soltys &
Atlanta Holistic Family Law

Jeanette Soltys is a family law attorney and certified mediator, and the founder of Atlanta Holistic Family Law. She built the Weekend Divorce service because she kept seeing the same pattern: couples who were basically in agreement, stuck, not because of the conflict, but because they didn't have someone to help them get it across the finish line.

Atlanta Holistic Family Law offers mediation and amicable divorce services. Our mediators are vetted, experienced, and selected because they bring creative problem-solving, not just message relay, to the table.

Common Questions

We know you're making big decisions. Here are the practical answers you need to feel confident moving forward.

Is mediation done in person or by Zoom?

Always by Zoom. Each spouse is placed in a separate virtual room, so you never have to be on screen with your spouse if you don't want to.

How long does the mediation session take?

Most sessions run 4-8 hours, depending on the number of open issues. We schedule the full day on Saturday so there's no time pressure.

What if we can't agree on everything?

A partial agreement still has value. Even narrowing down the issues and fully understanding each side's position saves significant time and money if you do need attorneys to resolve the remaining points.

Will the judge automatically approve our agreement?

Judges have discretion to review agreements, particularly around child support and custody. Our mediators are experienced with what Georgia courts expect.

What does it cost?

The checklist is free. Mediation is a flat fee of $1,500, per spouse. Court filing fees vary by county.

Can we use this even if one of us has already spoken to a lawyer?

Yes. Having consulted a lawyer doesn't disqualify you from mediation. The key question is whether both spouses are still open to a mediated agreement.
