What is the name of your state? Missouri. My wife and I will be getting a divorce. I am living 4 hours out of town. Is it better to get a lawyer where the divorce filing will be or out of town where I am living? Any advice? I have been waffling on this one.

Unless you want to pay some pretty hefty travel expenses plus an extra 8 hours of the attorneys time every time he/she has to go to court....you would be better off hiring one in the town where the divorce will be filed.
