Contested Divorce after Legal Separation
I moved out of our home and received a legal separation from my spouse approximately 2 1/2 years ago. I am seeking a divorce now, and have been informed by my husband that he will contest the divorce...what are my options, if any?

Assuming you have complied with the separation agreement, your husband may not have grounds to contest the divorce.
I suggest you contact an attorney to explore your rights and remedies.

A legal separation usuallyb means that all of the issues have been resolved.
If this is not the case you should consult an attorney to review the present situation
