"Your spouse has filed a petition for dissolution of marriage against you, and now nothing is happening. Hi I'm Robert Todd and I'm here to answer the question how do you finalize your divorce. Well of course this is going to vary from state to state, but in general simply filing the petition for dissolution of marriage without more is not going to finalize your divorce. Ultimately a judgment must be rendered, and in order to get a judgment it must be presented to the court that either the parties have agreed upon the various aspects of the marriage that need to be resolved, have been resolved, or they ask the court to make determinations on those issues. Such issues as equitably distributing the assets and the liabilities of the parties. Who's going to have custody of the children, what visitation there's going to be, and whether there's going to be support paid by one spouse to the other. Those types of questions. So to finalize your divorce you must get before the judge to either present an agreed upon agreement or to present the issues that the judge will decide. I'm Robert Todd and thank you for watching."
