Charlottesville, VA asked in Divorce for Virginia

Q: Who do I contact to see if the Court System has processed my final divorce documents? Ex wife’s lawyers filed the docs.

My ex wife’s lawyers created and filed the final divorce documents. I would like to get a copy of it and make sure it has actually been filed and processed. I want to have verification that we are legally divorced.

A: Some courts have this information online, but you can also call the Circuit Court clerk's office for the Virginia city or county where the divorce was filed. That's usually where you and/or ex lives.
