How long will my divorce take?
My husband has been refusing to sign divorce papers, and I'd like to take him to court. I'd appreciate help in finding out how long it will take, from my issuing a subpoena to our court date, for our divorce to be final. Is it final AT court? How many weeks between his being served and our court date, on average? PLEASE HELP!! (I'm in Virginia, if it helps!)
We have no children, and he's refusing to sign the paperwork out of spite, which is why it's come to this, ugh.

make sure you get the alimony

i am sure every state is different. when papers are served then it may be 30 days or so before a court date. It is best and a whole lot cheaper to go through divorce mediation. Is your husband not wanting a divorce or why is he refusing to sign the papers... have you both tried reconciliation... counseling??? dont know your circumstances but if you have children i would strongly encourage it...

It's time to get a matrimonial attorney anyway. S/he will be able to tell you how long it should take.
