I frequently receive questions from people regarding their family law issues. The following is a question which the inquirer agreed may be publicly revealed, and my answer to the question:
QUESTION: Is there a way to stop a divorce in California? My wife filed for divorce while I am living out of state for work. Can I stop this? She has been vicious, and is just doing this to exploit me. Can I delay the process?
ANSWER: Unfortunately, you can't delay the process.
Your formal Response to the Petition must be filed and served within 30 days after you were served with the divorce papers, or your wife will be able to request entry of default against you, preventing you from participating in the divorce case.
You should quickly contact and interview experienced Family Law Attorneys in the county in which the divorce case was filed, and retain one who is willing and able to deal with you via telephone, e-mail, FAX and hard-mail, to prepare and timely file and serve your Response, advise you, and represent you in the divorce case.
