Long Beach Summary Dissolution Attorneys
What is a Summary Dissolution?
Summary dissolution is a shortened version of the divorce process, and it helps couples without complications finalize divorce faster. Summary dissolution still requires fees, but it's usually cheaper. Couples who qualify for summary dissolution don't appear in court, which helps them save time, avoid paperwork, and save money.

“First and foremost, I found that I had a lot to learn about the divorce mediation process. I did not exactly know what the role of the mediator was or if we would still have to go to Court.”
