Frequently Asked Questions – Divorce with Property by Summons
What is a divorce by summons?
This type of divorce is used when only one spouse is filing and the other must be officially served with the divorce papers.
What if we have property to divide?
You can still file by summons. We will include how the property, assets, and debts should be divided in the documents you sign and submit to the court.
How is my spouse served?
We coordinate service through the sheriff’s office or a private process server, depending on where your spouse lives.
What happens if my spouse does not respond?
If your spouse does not respond within 20 days of being served, we will file a motion for default and continue the divorce process without their participation.
Do I need to go to court?
Not usually. As long as your documents are complete and the court accepts them, your divorce can often be finalized without a hearing.
Can the court filing fee be waived?
Yes. We will help you submit the proper forms to request a waiver based on your income, if you qualify.
