Your question cannot be answered in this forum because you have left out key facts. First, are there any minor children involved? If so, you have to wait 1 year, before you are eligible to file. If there are no children, you may file, if you have lived separate and apart for a period of 6 months and have a signed agreement.
You may wish to confer with an experienced family lawyer to discuss the actual divorce process and what is necessary to proceed. Lawyers charge by the hour, therefore, you need to discuss fees upfront to avoid any issues about the process. Best of luck~
