A: Use the Find a Lawyer tab to consult with a local divorce attorney who can explain the divorce process to you and how long it will take and what it will cost.

A: It will be relatively easy but not quick. Serving an opponent with a divorce complaint can be especially tricky in a foreign land. You really should hire a local lawyer who is experienced in Family Law. If your county allows it, serve your ex by FedEx.
