A: If you can not locate him you can still get divorced it will just cost more and take longer. So it is to your advantage to find him. Unless he is living off the grid most people can be found in 15 minutes or less by a competent PI. If you can't find him he will need to be served by legal publication - you will need an attorney fir this. Feel free to call us at (910) 333-9679 for more info.
