FAQ

Some states in the US do allow you to file for a divorce online. For example, residents of San Diego can file their divorce papers through the Superior Court of San Diego, California. However, the documents must be filed via an approved electronic filing service (EFSP).
Divorcing spouses are no longer burdened with proving fault that led to the end of the marriage, and instead can now only get divorced on these three no-fault grounds: 1) A six-month separation; 2) Irreconcilable differences; and 3) Mutual consent.
For now, the quickest route to obtain a divorce is an uncontested, no fault twelve month separation. In order to meet the requirements for this type of divorce, it is important to clearly establish the separation date. This will determine the twelve-month mark for when you can file a complaint for absolute divorce.

6-Month Separation – You and your spouse have lived separate and apart, without interruption, for at least six months before filing a complaint for absolute divorce. You can still live under the same roof but must pursue separate lives. The separation can also be based on a court order, such as a protective order.
If you are served a complaint for absolute divorce, you must respond by filing an answer. In an answer, you agree or disagree with the statements your spouse made in their complaint. You can use form CC-DR-050 (Answer to Complaint/Petition/Motion).
If you want to initiate or open a divorce case, use the Complaint/Counter-Complaint for Absolute Divorce (CC-DR-020) or Complaint/Counter-Complaint for Limited Divorce (CC-DR-021). If you want to respond to a divorce case that your spouse has opened, use the Answer (CC-DR-050) and Counter-Complaint (CC-DR-020/021).
Oftentimes a party responding to a divorce complaint with an answer will file a counterclaim as well. The counterclaim provides the responding party an opportunity to make their own allegations about the reason for the divorce and a chance to tell the court what they are asking for.
There are three ways to serve someone: by certified mail, sheriff, and private process. Select how you wish to have the Defendant served by checking the box on your Complaint form.
