How Can I Get A Divorce In Rochester If I Haven’t Seen My Spouse In Years?

It’s not as uncommon as you might think for married people to split up, live separate lives, and even lose touch, without ever actually divorcing.

If that’s your situation, there are advantages and disadvantages for you.

First, you may need to do some work to locate your spouse.

If you ultimately can’t find them, even after a thorough and well-documented search, you can still get a divorce though an approach called Publication Divorce.

If you know where your spouse is, then divorcing should simply be a matter of paperwork, and you can probably have an uncontested divorce with little cost or hassle.

But even when you’ve been out of each other’s lives for years, this isn’t always the case.

To make sure your divorce moves smoothly and with as little inconvenience to you as possible, call the attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer at 585-484-7432 for a legal consultation with an experienced Rochester divorce attorney.
