The checklist is already written, and its dates follow the steps of your case on Start here.
It keeps the divorce in order through the months it takes, without a binder full of loose papers.

📊 WHAT IT DOES

✓ Tasks: about forty steps from before filing to after the decree, already written. Dates come from the day you separated, the filing, and the decree, so overdue and coming-up tasks stand out.
✓ Assets: what you own at one value date, minus what is owed on it. Mark each one shared or yours from before, and who gets it; your side and their side add up as you decide.
✓ Debts: every card and loan, whose name it is in, and who takes it. A debt in your name that goes to your spouse is flagged, because the bank can still bill you.
✓ Division: the split on one page. What you share after the debts, your side, their side, what is still undecided, and the payment that would even it out.
✓ Budget: your money now and after the divorce, a month at a time, so you see what life on one income really costs.
✓ Support: child support and alimony payment by payment: on time, late, short, or missed.
✓ Legal Costs, Documents and Notes: every bill from the attorney, mediator and court; the papers for disclosure, ready to mark; and important talks, dated, with a follow-up.
✓ Home: tasks due next, follow-ups, who gets what, support and your money after.
