1 Answer from Attorneys
I'm a licensed Texas attorney so I can only address TX law. Since you are both here in the US, you can divorce in Texas. In Texas, if one spouse wants a divorce then the divorce will be granted if you can get her served with the divorce petition. I recommend that you contact a family law attorney in your county. Check out this website and www.avvo.com for an attorney to help you. Most accept payment plans. I don't know how you will find one that also knows El Salvador law.
You will need to contact an attorney in El Salvador about the laws in that country.
