How Do I Get a Divorce in California?

To obtain a divorce in California, at least one spouse must meet the residency requirements:

  • Been a California resident for at least six months before filing the petition
  • Lived in the county where the petition was filed for at least three months before the filing

A divorce petition initiates the case, providing the court with essential details, including:

  • The date of marriage
  • The number of minor children and their ages
  • Your requests for property division, child custody, and spousal support

If you do not meet the residency requirements for divorce, you may still file for a legal separation, and you may still be able to obtain orders for custody and support.

Every divorce is unique. Consulting with an experienced divorce lawyer ensures that your case is handled with the care and precision it deserves.

California Divorce Laws

California is a community property state, meaning assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally divided equally between spouses. Property division involves:

  1. Identifying which assets and debts are community property vs. separate property
  2. Determining the value of all community property assets and debts
  3. Dividing community property assets and debts to ensure each party receives an equal share

Disagreements over property division are common. Our firm works diligently to protect your interests and ensure a fair resolution.
