Divorce is often portrayed as a painful, drawn-out battle that drains families emotionally and financially. For many couples, the traditional legal system only adds to the stress, extending the process over months or even years, costing tens of thousands of dollars, and leaving emotional scars that can impact children and future co-parenting relationships.
At DeSantis Family Law, we believe that there is a better way. That’s why Attorney Emily DeSantis developed an innovative and compassionate solution: the DFL Divorce in a Day™ workshop.
The Problem with the Traditional Divorce Process
Traditional divorce litigation often pits spouses against each other in adversarial court battles. Even when both parties eventually reach a settlement, the journey is long, expensive, and emotionally exhausting.
- Average time to complete a divorce: 1 year or more
- Average cost per spouse: $10,000 or more
During this time, couples often experience heightened conflict, children can be caught in the middle, and financial resources are drained — all making future co-parenting relationships even more challenging.
The legal system, though intended to provide resolution, can unfortunately make the emotional wounds of divorce deeper and longer-lasting.
A Healthier Solution: DFL Divorce in a Day™
DFL Divorce in a Day™ is a groundbreaking mediation-style workshop designed to help couples complete the divorce process quickly, affordably, and with minimal conflict.
Instead of fighting through court dates, depositions, and endless paperwork, couples work together — guided by attorneys, paralegals, and divorce specialists — to resolve their divorce in just one day.
This is not just a faster divorce — it's a healthier one. By focusing on collaboration rather than conflict, DFL Divorce in a Day™ helps couples move forward in a way that protects their financial resources, their children, and their emotional well-being.
How Does It Work?
- Location: Workshops are held at our Covington, Kentucky location.
- Schedule: Typically offered on the first and third Fridays of each month.
- Sign-up Deadline: You must complete the registration process at least seven (7) days before the workshop date.
What Happens During the Workshop?
On the day of the workshop:
- You and your spouse will receive an overview of the divorce process from two experienced attorneys — one from DeSantis Family Law and one from a partnering law firm.
- You will be assigned a dedicated paralegal who will work with you throughout the day to complete all of your necessary legal documents.
- By the end of the day, you will leave with all paperwork prepared, ready to be filed for your dissolution of marriage in either Kentucky or Ohio.
The goal is to walk in together — and walk out with everything needed to move forward, without unnecessary stress, delays, or extra expense.
