The legal information in this publication is designed to help you learn about the laws that apply when you want to end your marriage in YOUR STATE (known as a "marital dissolution" or "dissolution of marriage"). It will give you an overview of the law and help you decide what type of case you need to file in court.

This publication is intended for persons who want to file a dissolution of marriage (petitioner) or persons who have been served with dissolution of marriage papers (respondent).

In addition to this publication, you may want to use one of our do-it-yourself packets that have forms and instructions for filing or responding to a Petition for Dissolution. You may also want to check with your County Court Clerk or Family Law Facilitator (if your county has a facilitator) to see if your county has the packet you want: local packets may be easier to use because they include required local forms and procedures.

This guide is "extremely" detailed and takes you, step by step, through every phase of the divorce process.  I'ts like a Cliff Notes of the Divorce business.  This detailed informoration, nicely complements the NBFR Divorce Manual found on out main page.
