By accessing or using the Service, you agree to comply with and to be bound by all of the terms and conditions described in these Terms. If you do not agree to all of these terms and conditions, you are not authorized to use the Service.

As used herein, “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Split Happy; “you”, “your” and “yourself” refer to the individual user of the Services.

As used herein, “Website”, “Site” or “Platform” refers to www.splithappy.com.

You hereby certify that you are (i) over the age of eighteen (18), (ii) physically located or are a resident of the State or Country you have chosen as your current residency when creating your Account, (iii) your marital union, domestic partnership, or other similar union is governed by the laws of the State where Split Happy provides Services, (iv) you are 18 years of age or older and legally competent to agree to these Terms and Conditions.

Split Happy provides divorce filing services in the State of California.

Split Happy offers self-help “Do-It-Yourself” (DIY) software, instructional templates, interactive guides and checklists, various tutorials on the divorce process, and videos that will help you in your divorce process. Split Happy also provides (1) generally published, factual information, that has been approved by the Courts which pertain to the legal procedures, rights, or obligations, when you represent yourself in a legal matter; (2) access to relevant, published legal documents; (3) a “Do-It-Yourself” divorce form generator; and (4) access to mediators and therapists who you can hire to assist you in your case.

Our self-help DIY software currently covers only California divorce cases and the standard forms used by most Courts in California. However, we do not currently provide support for all Local Court Forms that may be required by some California courts. You should check with your local Courthouse to see if they require any special coversheets or other such local forms.

Split Happy is not a law firm and does not provide attorney services. We do not handle contested divorces. Should your divorce matter not be able to be handled through the DIY process, or with the assistance of mediators and therapists, you will then need to retain an attorney to handle your contested divorce.

Therapy and mediation services are accessible in all states where we have an affiliated Mediator and/or Therapist. You do not need to be legally married in order to benefit from Mediation and/or Therapy services, however, only legally recognized marriages can be terminated by the Courts.

You understand and agree that Split Happy does not provide attorney services. We are a document preparation, mediation and therapy services facilitator. The fact that some of our Mediators may hold licenses as attorneys does not make Split Happy a law firm and any legal services you contract with an attorney-mediator who is listed on www.splithappy.com shall be done outside the scope of the Services provided by Split Happy.

Even though some of our Mediators may be licensed attorneys, we provide access to these mediators for mediation purposes. You cannot hire these mediators to handle your case as attorneys if you are using our Services. Thus, you will need to retain an independent attorney to handle your contested divorce.

ACCESSING SPLIT HAPPY’S MATERIALS DOES NOT CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND SPLIT HAPPY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES.

Split Happy users that access mediators and/or therapists through our Platform enter into an agreement directly with the respective mediator/therapist. In case you decide to access and pay for any mediator and/or therapist help, you will be required to review and accept the latter’s terms of services specifically related to the services and fees that you are hiring them to perform.

Site Content

Mediators and Therapists

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. Notices required to be given to you by Split Happy may be delivered by electronic mail to the address provided during the creation of your Account. These Terms constitute the entire Agreement between Split Happy and yourself regarding the Service, and supersede and replace any prior agreements you and Split Happy might have regarding the Service.
