Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
My husband and I have been seperated since May 2011. We have 1 child but no shared assets. We both still reside in the same city and custody as well as child support have already been court ordered. I asked my husband if he'd sign the divorce without a lawyer and he agreed so i worked up the paperwork myself per the vbgov uncontested divorce manual. I delivered the papers to him myself, with a witness, 21 days ago and he has yet to sign them. At this point, can i go ahead myself to the courts and get the divorce without his signature?

Without reviewing your paperwork, I couldn't say. (You might want to check with
the clerk's office of the circuit court.)
Get a date for a court hearing on entry of the final divorce order, send him a notice and get the judge to enter the divorce order if he does not show.
