What are the Requirements to Qualify for a Summary Dissolution in California?
Divorce can be extremely time consuming and stressful, which is why the state of California allows a simpler form of divorce called a summary dissolution. This solution is often less stressful, easier on all parties involved, takes less time, and costs less than a traditional divorce. However, you will need to meet a number of requirements to qualify for a summary dissolution.
The requirements for a summary dissolution include:
- No minor children are involved in the divorce
- You or your spouse have been in California for at least six months
- The marriage only lasted five or less years
- Neither you or your spouse owns real estate
- Both you and your spouse want the marriage to end
