In California there is no at fault divorce, only no fault. There is no advantage to filing first. The only possible advantage is to get things started.

If you mean no-fault divorce, then your question discloses you do not fully understand the situation and system. I would suggest you at least counsel with a local attorney to determine what your options and obligations will be, and whether in your particular case it would be an advantage, or disadvantage, to file first.

I do not believe it makes any difference who files first.

Wi is a no fault divorce state. It doesn't matter who files.
