    The Divorce Process in Rocklin, Placer County

    1. Filing the petition: Divorce begins when one spouse files a petition with the court.
    2. Serving papers: The other spouse must be officially notified.
    3. Response and disclosure: Each side shares financial information.
    4. Negotiation or mediation: Many couples resolve issues outside of court.
    5. Court hearings (if needed): If agreements can’t be reached, a judge will decide.
    6. Final judgment: The divorce is finalized, and orders on custody, support, and property are legally binding.

    Because California has a six-month waiting period, even the most straightforward divorce takes time. Our exceptional attorneys can ensure the process moves as smoothly as possible.

    What Our Clients Say

    • Excellent group. I searched through over 40 attorneys, and it took weeks. Luckily, I came across Jason, who I hired and is helping me with my case. His court skills are incredible and his ability to catch details on the opposing group and bring them up in court are perfect.

Mr. Hopper is a great communicator, treats his clients very well, and I trust his judgment. I am obviously very pleased across the board and believe Mr. Hopper works extremely hard for his clients.

      Stancil Hutchinson

    • A true professional... Mr. Hopper has been a great attorney and I am truly grateful for his assistance. He has been nothing but professional and is a great communicator and quite kind. I am impressed by his judgment and several other qualities. I would not consider another attorney should similar matters arise in the future.

      Avvo review

    • Hands down the best. Jason was competent, knowledgeable and extremely effective. I had a difficutlt move away custody case. Jason listened carefully to all the details and was able to translate that into the proper legal format and terminology crafting an approach that resulted in a better outcome than I could have even hoped for. Along the way he was responsive, professional and reassuring. I highly recommend Jason and his team.

    Frequently Asked Questions About
    ‍Divorce in Placer County

    Company logo

    What are the grounds for divorce in California?

    California follows a no-fault divorce system. This means you don’t need to prove wrongdoing, such as adultery or cruelty, to end your marriage. Instead, most divorces are filed under “irreconcilable differences,” which simply means the marriage cannot be repaired. Either spouse can file for divorce even if the other doesn’t agree.

    Are there any residency requirements to file for divorce in California?

    Yes. To file for divorce in California, at least one spouse must have lived in the state for a minimum of six months, and in the county where you’re filing for at least three months. If you don’t yet meet these requirements, you may still be able to file for a legal separation first, and later amend the petition to a divorce once the residency requirements are met.

    How long does the divorce process take?

    In California, divorce takes at least six months and one day from the date your spouse is served — this waiting period cannot be waived. Simple cases may be resolved quickly (some couples may qualify for a summary dissolution), while contested or complex divorces involving children or significant assets can take longer. Our experienced Rocklin divorce lawyer can help keep the process on track.
