Simple Dissolution
A Summary Dissolution of Marriage is the cheapest and simplest way to get a divorce in the state of California.
This method is very limited and can only be used by a married couple which meets the following requirements:
1. The parties have been married less than five (5) years as of the date the action is filed.
2. There are no children together born before or during the marriage, including by adoption, and the Wife, to her knowledge, is not pregnant as of the date the action is filed.
3. Neither party has any interest/ownership in real estate.
The married couple jointly signs the necessary paperwork and the originals are filed with the Court. After waiting six (6) months, either party can file the document requesting that the marriage be ended.
