Legal Question in Family Law in California

Fast divorce

I have only been married about four months and now my spouse and I have come to the agreement of a divorce, however when I went to the family court in Downtown San Diego they told me that I have to fill out a stack of papers and wait six months. Since I have been married for such a short period of time can I do something that will make it easier and faster for obtaining a divorce.

Re: Fast divorce

Six months waiting period from date of filing is the law. While you may qualify for a summary dissolution, many pro pers find it a difficult procedure. Please call me directly at (619) 222-3504.

You might qualify for a summary dissolution which is less paperwork but you cant avoid the 6 months.
