The Irving Law Firm

The Irving Law Firm understands how important it is to get the divorce process started properly. Filing a complaint and ensuring it is served correctly is the first step, and we’re here to guide you through it with care and precision.

To initiate a divorce, you must file a complaint with the court. This document outlines the grounds for the divorce and sets the legal process in motion. After the complaint is filed, a copy must be served on your spouse, giving them 21 days to respond. We help ensure that the complaint is drafted correctly and filed in a timely manner, and we assist in serving the document through the appropriate legal channels.

If your spouse fails to respond within the designated time, we assist in filing for a default judgment, allowing the case to proceed without their involvement. Should they respond, we guide you through the next steps, whether that means negotiating a settlement or moving toward trial. Our attorneys work to ensure that your interests are fully protected throughout the process.
