What do I need to do to get a divorce?

If you are unable to locate your husband for service of the summons and complaint, you will need to seek an order of publication from the administrative judge in the county your case is filed. You will have to present a proposed order, and provide evidence that you made a diligent attempt to serve him the pleadings.  This is not the type of procedural matter that is easily handled without an attorney.  It is possible that you could retain the services of an attorney for the limited purpose of assisting with this task which would be much more cost-effective then hiring an attorney for the entire process. Some attorneys may provide you the information necessary for the cost of a consultation fee. For example, my office would charge $250 and provide you the necessary documents and direction during that meeting.  This would not include any court appearances or further document drafting.
