Can i divorce him without an hassel
A:
Yes, you very likely can. As long as you have:1) been physically separated (not living together) from your spouse for at least one year AND 2) either you OR your spouse has resided in North Carolina for at least the last 6 months, you are likely eligible to file for divorce in North Carolina.
Also, if you meet those requirements, you are entitled to the divorce as a matter of law - meaning there is nothing your spouse can legally do to prevent it.
You would NOT need to attend court or travel to our office. You can do most everything from home. The total fee is $395 which covers everything needed for a standard uncontested divorce. As far as we know, these fees are the most affordable in the entire state of North Carolina. However, if you are ever quoted a lower fee, just let us know and we will beat it!
You can get started immediately by going to our web site and filling out our easy Divorce Interview Form (takes about 5 - 10 minutes). www.easyncdivorce.com
