Legal Question in Family Law in California

divorce from france

I decided to divorce my husband who was drinking, smoking marijuana, not working and cheating on me. I am currently in Paris, France, and I would like to do my divorce from here because I don't want to see him. Is it possible to finalize everything without coming back to California? Thanks for your answer.

If there are no children and the marriage lasted less than 5 years you may be eligible for a summary dissolution. In any event, an attorney may submit the petition and appear on your behalf without the need for you to travel back to the U.S. Contact me directly. 20 years experience in most major Califorinia County Courts.

Yes. But you will need an attorney in your venue in U.S. to file all paperwork and appear in Court on your behalf.
