A woman in her 30s who had been hesitating to get a divorce because she lost contact with her husband for seven years came to Song Law Firm for help. The client only had the last known address of the husband and did not know the husband’s current address or contact information.
Our family law lawyer immediately found the husband’s new address registered in the record through the due diligence process, and by trying to deliver the complaint in various ways, we were able to confirm that the husband does not currently live at the new address that was found in the due diligence process. In the end, our family law team lawyer prepared the motion to request the court to approve serving the complaint through a process called “publication”, and we successfully received the court order and proceeded with the delivery of the complaint. We prepared the rest of the divorce process thoroughly with the client; as a result, our client got divorced.
