Legal Question in Family Law in California
Seperated-Divorced
I know a person that was married in 1978 and has been separated since 1989, he never bothered to get a divorce. Now he is thinking of getting remarried and needs to get a divorce. He has no idea where his ex-wife is. How can he get a divorce when he has no idea where his ex is? Can he do this himself or does he need to find her first?

In a general sense, a missing spouse can be served with divorce papers by publication in a newspaper. There are specific procedural steps that have to be taken first.
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
