Dear Oksana,
You will be able to get divorced in Massachusetts as long as you have lived in Massachusetts for a year. To get an amicable divorce from you Husband in Russia all you need is to have him sign the proper paperwork in Russia in front of a notary. Additionally, you will need to waive his appearance at the hearing.
If you would like assistance with the process, do not hesitate to contact my office.
