Sometimes marriages fall apart.  Maybe you can get along but you just can stay married. You and your spouse agree it is time for a divorce. Lubbock divorce attorney Tempie Hutton can help you file for a divorce today. You will have to pay a filing fee in the county where you reside unless you qualify financially for the judge to waive your fees. Besides a filing fee, there is the cost to have the other party served with the divorce petition. However, this fee can be zero ($0.00) if your spouse and you are getting along and they sign a waiver of service. Basically, the waiver says they were given a copy of the filed petition and they don’t need to be served in person. The final document the two of you work through is the Final Decree of Divorce. You must wait at least 60 days and then at least one of you goes to court and the judge hears what is often referred to as a “Prove Up”.  Don’t let this process scare or worry you.  Tempie will walk you through each step.
