Legal information boundaries

What California Divorce Resources does—and does not do.

The product is designed to help people understand and organize a California family-law process without replacing advice from a lawyer who can evaluate their individual facts.

General information, not legal advice

The app explains common California family-law procedures, forms, terminology, and organizational steps. It does not decide what you should do in your case.

No attorney-client relationship

California Divorce Resources is not a law firm and does not represent you. Using the app does not create an attorney-client relationship or attorney-client privilege.

No strategy or legal-position selection

The app does not tell you what relief to request, what claims or defenses to make, what custody or settlement position to take, whether an agreement is fair, or whether to accept or reject an offer.

No outcome or rights determination

The app does not predict what a judge will do, decide whether you will win or lose, determine that you are legally entitled to a result, or calculate your legal rights.

Dates are reminders to verify

Calculated dates are organizational reminders. Filed notices, signed orders, statutes, rules, service methods, judicial holidays, and current local instructions can change the actual deadline.

AI can be incomplete or wrong

Plain-English explanations and document analysis can make mistakes or miss context. Compare important information with the original document and an official court source before relying on it.

Local procedure changes

County and department practices can change. The app links to official court sources so you can verify the current local rule or instruction.

When the question is “What should I do?”

If you need someone to apply the law to your facts, recommend a strategy, evaluate an agreement, advise what relief to request, or tell you how to protect your legal interests, that is the point to speak with a qualified attorney. California court self-help services can provide legal information and explain options, but they do not act as your lawyer.
