Divorce Process Serving in Virginia
Your spouse must be formally served for a divorce to proceed. SimpleDivorce assigns a licensed process server who delivers the papers, documents each attempt with GPS and time stamps, and returns a notarized affidavit of service for the court. In Virginia, most uncontested cases finalize in 4–8 weeks after the separation period and paperwork requirements are already met, once the final decree is entered by the court.

Residency
One spouse must have lived in Virginia for at least 6 months before filing.
