Separation was caused by breakdown of marriage with no-one else involved although during the past year both me and my husband have found new partners. We have settled everything between ourselves financially so there are no outstanding monies owing to either party. There are no childen involved either and the house belongs to me as I bought my husbands share from him.

I have just done the same thing mate. If you have been separated for 2 years or more and there are no complications and both happy to divorce then it can be done very quickly. Make an initial solicitors appointment and then it will take about 4-6 weeks from your application to court to get your nisi. Then your solicitor puts in the application in for your absolute and this takes exactly 6weeks and 1 day from your nisi date. Then you are free to marry again!! If you are as brave as me!!! ;o) The total cost was about £250 for the nisi and likewise for the absolute, so approx £600 altogether. Good luck x

You need to see a solicitor explain everything (as above), should not take too long in your position. Don't let solicitors sway you into asking for anything else from your husband because some will try.
Should not cost too much but all depends on circumstances, the fact that you have already sorted you affairs out should keep it minimal.

Go buy a do it yourself kit and fill it out it should cost about 40.00 if you need help filling it out maybe you can find a paralegal to help you, the paperwork has to be filled out correctly or the judge will send you home and then you will have to do the process over again, after you get the paperwork done take it to the family court and file it it will cost maybe 150.00 to 170.00 for filing and if you have to pay for a divorce referee it will be another 100.00 and at that time they will give you a case # and date to appear..

It depends on if he contests it after you've filed.
Hope you have documented proof that you bought that house from him....otherwise you might have to pay him again.
The cost of the divorce can be diminished if you file the paperwork yourself. Go to your courthouse, in the family law department and ask them for the packet. They will charge you a fee to file it (varies depending on county). If your ex agrees with everything, bring him with you and have him sign everything at the same time, that will save a lot of time.

u could have filed for divorce as soon as u left him. there are some places u can get divorced for as little as $200 if he will voluntarily sign the papers since u have no property or kids to settle on. talk to an attorney. i think u can just meet in his office and sign the papers then they have to be filed and that will be the end of it. good luck to u

Well if it's uncontested should be fairly cheap and quick. A few hundred dollars for the divorce and a few weeks for it to become final, depending on where you live ofcourse. Look under uncontested divorce for your state.

It depends on where you live. You both can use the same atty. but you set it up, that way should thing go bad, He has to find the atty. and your atty. will be ready for court.
The cost again depends on where you live here in Missouri it's less than $500.00 with both of you agreeing on everything.
Hope this helps
