My Spouse Filed for Divorce, and We Do Not Have Minor Children

This toolkit tells you about responding to your spouse's complaint for divorce when you and your spouse do not have minor children. For general information about divorce, read the Articles. Read the Common Questions if you have a specific question. If you want to respond to the divorce complaint you received, use the Forms link to prepare your forms. The Checklist below has step-by-step instructions for responding to a complaint for divorce and finishing your divorce. Go to Courts & Agencies for information about the court or agency that will handle your case.

You'll find links to legal aid offices and lawyer referral services under Find A Lawyer. If there is a Self-Help Center in your area you can get more help there. If you need something other than legal help, look in Community Services. If you need a fee waiver, an interpreter, a court to accommodate your disability, or more information about going to court, visit Going to Court.
