Court Website Aims to Help People

Cuyahoga County Domestic Relations Court plans to launch an updated website designed to help the growing number of people who file for divorce without lawyers.

The site, which is expected to go live next month, will provide easy-to-understand instructions for obtaining a divorce, enforcing child or spousal support and obtaining protection orders in cases of domestic violence. The site also will include fill-in-the-blank forms to file with the court.
