9. MUTUAL RELEASE. Except for the rights and duties created by this Agreement, each Party releases the other from all claims against the other's property, income, and estate, including claims to inherit from or administer the other's estate, to the extent permitted by law.
10. FULL DISCLOSURE. Each Party represents that they have fully and honestly disclosed their assets, income, and debts to the other, and that they enter into this Agreement voluntarily, without fraud, duress, or undue influence.

This Agreement is the entire agreement between the Parties on these matters, may be changed only in writing signed by both Parties, and may be presented to a court and incorporated into a later divorce decree.
This is a general template and not legal advice. Divorce and family laws, including how property is divided, how child support and custody are decided, and whether a court must approve the terms, vary by state and often require court filings. Review your state's requirements or have an attorney review this Agreement before use.

Questions
Are these documents legally valid?+
These are professionally structured templates using standard clause language. Whether a completed document is legally binding depends on your state's requirements, proper signing (and notarization or witnesses where required), and your specific situation. For anything high-stakes, have an attorney review it. Nothing here is legal advice.
Is it really free?+
Yes. Filling in a document, previewing it, printing it, and saving it as a PDF are free with no signup. A free account saves your documents; Pro adds Word and Excel export and unlimited saved documents.
Do you store what I enter?+
No. The document is generated in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to our servers unless you choose to save it to an account, and saved documents can be deleted anytime.
Can I edit the document after generating it?+
Yes. Every field stays editable, and you can regenerate as many times as you like. Print or save the final version as a PDF when it looks right.
Will this hold up if it needs to be signed or notarized?+
The template includes signature lines. Some documents need witnesses or a notary to be enforceable in your state. Check your state's requirements before signing, and use a notary where one is required.
