Can my husband and I file jointly for an uncontested divorce?

Both my husband and I want a divorce and we’ve discussed and resolved most of our issues. We went to the San Antonio courthouse and were told that we needed something called a Petition for Dissolution and a consent decree if we wanted to divorce without attorneys or a judge becoming involved. The clerk would not explain to us exactly what those are – said she could not give us legal advice. Is there someplace we can get this information or an attorney we can talk to about it? Are we able to file jointly for an uncontested divorce and if we do, do we still need to appear in court?
