  • Dissolution of Marriage, Legal Separation, or Nullity without Minor Children

  • Hidden
  • You may use this workbook to ask the court for a dissolution of marriage (or legal separation) when there are NO MINOR children born of, or adopted during, the marriage (including children born to you and your spouse prior to the date of marriage) and the wife is not pregnant.

    This workbook will produce a Petition (FL-100), Summons (FL-110), and Proof of Service (FL-115 and FL-117) forms. When your summons is served, each spouse is prohibited from cashing, borrowing against, transferring or taking other similar actions regarding insurance, real and personal property, or creating or modifying a nonprobate transfer without the written consent of the other party.

    This workbook and your answers are used by Guideway to prepare the requested legal forms. Please use the information found in this workbook and, if applicable, in the appropriate Guideway Overview on the subject or your own knowledge or independent research when deciding how to proceed in your legal matter. If you need additional resources, please do not hesitate to ask your Guideway Representative for help in finding them.

    If an answer is left blank, Guideway will assume the intended answer is "none" or "N/A".
    Note for Registered Domestic Partners: Your partnership must be registered with the California Secretary of State.
    Note: With a Legal Separation, you will remain married after the proceeding has completed.

  • INFORMATION ABOUT YOU

    One spouse will be the "Petitioner" and one spouse will be the "Respondent". The Petitioner initiates the court process. Since you are starting this process with us, we'll assume you are going to be the Petitioner.
  • MM slash DD slash YYYY
  • INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR SPOUSE

    Note: If your spouse is on active military duty, he/she will need to sign an Appearance, Stipulation and Waiver (FL-130) and a Marital Settlement Agreement in order for Guideway to assist.
  • INFORMATION FOR PETITION

    Note: If neither of the above statements is true, Guideway will not be able to assist you with the divorce at this time; however, at your direction, Guideway can assist you with a Legal Separation now, and with amending the petition to a divorce once the residency requirement has been established.

  • Will there be spousal support in your matter?

    Examples of some situations are described below. Please check one of the following examples, if you feel it applies to your situation, or describe your situation in your own words.

  • INFORMATION FOR SERVICE OF DOCUMENTS

    Note: Your spouse must be given a copy of all divorce papers before the divorce can proceed; this is known as "service". Guideway will prepare the proof of service documents based on your selection.
