Frequently Asked Questions
What are the residency requirements for divorce in California?
To file for divorce in California you or your spouse must have lived in the state for at least six months and in the county where you file for at least three months. San Mateo County courts require these residency periods before you can proceed.
How long does a divorce take in San Mateo County?
California law requires a mandatory six-month waiting period from the date the divorce papers are served to the spouse. The actual time can be longer if the case is contested or involves complex issues like property division or child custody.
What is community property in California divorce?
California is a community property state meaning all assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally split equally between spouses. Property owned before marriage or received as a gift or inheritance is usually separate property and not divided.
