When most people think about Harvard, the best, brightest, and most expensive come to mind. “Shlep” does not, however, it should. “Shlep”, which means “to carry” or “to move slowly, awkwardly, or tediously” (thank you Dictionary.com) is also the acronym for Self Help Law ExPress, a blog hosted by Harvard.

Shlep is written by a team of “self help advocates and law practitioners” whose primary purpose is to provide information, news, and opinions about self help resources available to the public. The blog covers a variety of topics, which are indexed “a-z”, including (recently) Holiday Family Court Disputes, Pre-Marital Agreements, living together, and bankruptcy. It also provides links to a diverse group of online resources.

This blog, while somewhat broad in scope, may be a valuable resource for anyone representing herself in divorce. If you have some time, browse the categories for articles and links that shed light on issues of import to you.
