NO one is going to walk you step by step through a divorce.You need to read the rules of procedure, the local rules and look at the website for your county's divorce court. Start with that. Then come back and ask more specific questions.

Your answer is rude!

It's not rude at all - it's very specific and accurate. I can give a little bit more information that might help you on where to start here in California, but I'm going to wait for you to apologize.

In what way? Because OhioGAL, a site vetted attorney, told you that no one here can give you step-by-step instruction on pro se litigation? Did you read the TOS of this site?

 

[Ohiogal]

Your answer is rude!

My answer is truthful and honest.

Wow, I was going to respond because I did this years ago all by my lonesome (with lots of internet research), but if OP is going to be snappy and ungrateful... sheesh.

Your answer is rude!

Not at all. Fact is - we are all volunteers here, and we're not going to walk you through it.

I've done it myself and provided general guidance to at least 3 other individuals (not "advice", of course )


EDIT: And I'm in the OP's state...

I would bet those 3 other people were polite?

Heck, they were even appreciative...

Most counties in CA have either a family law facilitator's office or a self-help office. Not every courthouse has one but generally there is one in every county. Their specific function is to help people who are trying to do things like divorces, without an attorney.
