Frequently Asked Questions
What are the residency requirements for divorce in Santa Ana?
To file for divorce in California, you or your spouse must have lived in the state for at least six months and in Orange County for at least three months before filing. This residency requirement is set by California Family Code section 2320.
How long does a divorce take in Santa Ana?
A California divorce takes a minimum of six months from the date the respondent is served with papers. This is due to the mandatory six-month waiting period under California Family Code section 2339. Complex cases with disputes over assets or custody can take longer.
What is the difference between legal separation and divorce in California?
Legal separation allows spouses to live apart and divide assets without ending the marriage. Divorce terminates the marriage entirely. Both options are available in California, and a legal separation can be converted to a divorce later if both parties agree.
