Divorce Papers

Divorce papers are official legal documents that initiate and outline the process of ending a marriage. They typically include a Petition for Divorce, which states the reason for the separation, and other forms addressing issues like child custody, visitation, support, and division of property. These papers are filed with the court to formally inform both parties and start the legal procedures required for the divorce to be granted. Properly serving these documents ensures both partners are aware of the proceedings and have an opportunity to respond or participate as needed.
