Serving Divorce Pleadings

DivDecr

Serving divorce pleadings is often one of the first steps to initiate a divorce. This can become difficult if your spouse is intent on dodging service.   

The best first step in any divorce case should always be to get in touch with a qualified, experienced family law attorney in Pennsylvania. These legal professionals can help you with virtually every aspect of your divorce, including those initial steps that involve serving pleadings. Once you have dealt with this step, you can move forward and tackle the next stages, such as negotiations, gathering evidence, fighting for child custody, and much more.   

Communicate  

Often, spouses dodge divorce papers because they don’t understand the process. Some spouses may believe that they can avoid a divorce if they are never served. This is why it’s important to discuss the when, where and how of service with your lawyer, and to avoid blindsiding your spouse if possible. This may not always be the best tactic, and your lawyer will help you figure out the best way to proceed depending on the facts and circumstances of your case.   

Professional Process Servers  

If your spouse is difficult to serve, you might have to hire a professional process server. In Pennsylvania, you can not serve your spouse with the initial pleadings, so you will need a third party to handle this for you.
