When divorcing spouses reconcile, they need the divorce action halted. Early on, that can be as simple as just not taking any further action in your divorce.
But once you’ve submitted a settlement agreement to the court, you’re just waiting to receive the court order that dissolves your marriage, so you need to act fast to stop the process.
You should notify your lawyer right away, and your lawyer should immediately file a stipulation of discontinuance with the court.
This will cancel your divorce, but must be done before the judge signs off on your final judgment ending your marriage.
Even if you filed the divorce without representation, literally saving your marriage when you’ve reconciled late in the process may depend on the help of an attorney.
At Friedman & Ranzenhofer, we’ll record your reconciliation fast and do everything possible to make sure your reconciliation becomes part of the record before the court ratifies your divorce.
