The purpose of this information is to provide you with a relatively brief, yet reasonably comprehensive, introduction to the law of marital status actions in California, which includes actions for DISSOLUTION (California’s term for divorce), LEGAL SEPARATION, NULLITY, and PUTATIVE SPOUSE, and the matters which arise in connection with those divorce actions. This primer also outlines the general mechanics of those proceedings, as well as what you can expect of our law firm and what we will expect from you.
