Divorce Process Serving in Maine

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 Maine, about 60 days minimum after service; most uncontested cases finalize in 3 to 4 months.
