We often get asked the same questions by potential clients in our initial consultation and though the specific facts of your case may vary, these commonly asked questions generally apply to most, if not all, divorce matters in California.
Dissolution is the official term for divorce in California.
There are two ways you can obtain a dissolution in California: standard, which is the most common form of divorce, and summary, which is a shortened version of the divorce process.
Not everyone can use summary dissolution to end their marriage as there are very specific requirements that must be met for the court to approve your divorce.
