Divorce from Greece

If she is a resident of Greece, Massachusetts has no legal jurisdiction over the divorce matter.

If she is merely visiting Greece, and intends to return to the US or Massachusetts, then she should file in Massachusetts.

Whether it is a divorce or annulment depends on the facts of the case.

If you have any questions, or seek assistance, contact me.
