My daughter has been separated for over a year and has a child support agreement brokered through the Domestic Relations Court in Fairfax County. Can she do a pro se divorce?

Re: pro se divorce

Yes she may but I really don't recommend it because there are still legal issues involved that she will not be aware of. Also, child support and custody/visitation is modifiable and there may be an issue during the divorce regarding those issues.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at either my MD office at 301-652-0663 or my VA office at 703-968-3974.
