Re: getting divorce without other parties consent.
If you have been separated for a two year period, a spouse can obtain a non consentual divorce in Pennsylvania. However, all issues of equitable distribution of property could remain, if the other spouse demands a hearing. If I can be of any assistence please let me know. Gerald Hershenson 215-579-9390
