To file for divorce, you’ll need to prepare and submit several key documents, which may vary slightly depending on your state or jurisdiction. Commonly required paperwork includes:

• Petition for Divorce: The formal request to begin divorce proceedings.
• Summons: Notifies your spouse of the divorce and their legal obligations.
• Financial Affidavits: A detailed statement of income, expenses, assets, and debts.
• Parenting Plan (if children are involved): Outlines custody, visitation, and child support arrangements.
• Settlement Agreement (if uncontested): Documents any agreed-upon terms between spouses.

Additional documents may be required based on your specific situation. Our attorneys can help ensure all paperwork is completed accurately and filed on time, giving your case the strongest possible start.

A General Diary (GD) is an official record made at a police station to document incidents such as lost items, threats, disputes, or suspicious activity. Filing a GD helps establish a legal record that may be necessary for future legal proceedings or claims.

How to file a GD:
- Visit your local police station in person.
- Provide a written statement detailing the incident.
- Bring a valid ID (e.g., national ID, driver's license, or passport).
- Request a copy or acknowledgment receipt of the GD after it is filed.

Cost:
Filing a General Diary is typically free of charge in most jurisdictions. However, some administrative fees may apply if you request certified copies or require notarized documentation.
