Filing Guide
How to File for Divorce in Alabama
Divorce starts when one person (called the “petitioner”) fills out and files divorce papers with the court. Then, those papers have to be officially delivered (or “served”) to the other person (the “respondent”). After that, the court gives the respondent time to reply. If both people agree on things like money, property, and kids, the divorce can be easier and quicker. Once everything is sorted out, the judge signs the final divorce order, and the marriage is officially over.
1
File the Divorce Papers
One spouse files a petition or complaint for divorce with the court.
2
Serve the Other Spouse
The filed papers are officially delivered to the other spouse, who has a chance to respond.
3
Finalize the Divorce
If both spouses agree, they submit a settlement for approval. If not, the court may hold hearings before issuing a final divorce order.
