How long does a divorce take?
The time needed to complete a divorce action depends upon
many factors, including the degree to which you and your spouse may have agreed
on many matters and the backlog of cases in your county. You cannot file a
request for divorce until you and your spouse have lived separate an apart for
one year.
If both spouses have agreed on all aspects of the divorce,
and if grounds for the divorce exist, a judgment of divorce will usually take
three months or more after the divorce complaint is filed. If aspects are
contested, a final decision may take a much longer period of time.
