You can file where you are a resident. He can be served by mail in England. If he agrees with what you say inn your papers, he can let the matter go to a default judgment by simply doing nothing. A good paralegal should be able to get you through this.

If he is agreeable, you can file here (in the Jurisdiction where you have residence) and send him the paperwork. He can agree to be 'served by mail, there is a form that he will sign. Then, you just have to each do the required paperwork, and do a Final Judgment (Settlement Agreement), which he will sign with a Notary.
