Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG DOES THE DIVORCE PROCESS TAKE?

Most applications are filed within 3–5 business days after we receive your information.
The Court then lists the matter, usually within 6–12 weeks.

CAN I APPLY WITHOUT MY SPOUSE'S COOPERATION?

Yes. You can file as a sole applicant. We assist with service.

WHAT PAYMENT OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE?

We offer a range of flexible payment options, including payment plans.

WHAT IF MY MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE IS NOT IN ENGLISH?

We arrange certified translations for you.

DOES THIS DIVORCE DEAL WITH PROPERTY OR PARENTING ISSUES?

No. Divorce only ends the marriage.
If you need property or parenting orders, we can help separately.

DO I NEED TO ATTEND COURT?

Usually no—simple divorces rarely require a hearing if there are no children under 18.
If a hearing is required, we’ll guide you through it.
