Frequently Asked Questions
Arizona has a 60-day waiting period from the date of service, but finalizing a divorce can take longer depending on the complexity and level of agreement.
Yes. You can petition the court for a modification if there’s been a substantial change in circumstances affecting the child or parent’s situation.
Arizona is a community property state. This means assets and debts acquired during the marriage are typically divided equally unless otherwise agreed.
We can help you file for an Order of Protection to help keep you and your children safe from domestic abuse or threats.
