I need to serve my husband divorce papers , do i need a special form to have him sign?

have a process server (from the court) deliver them. Thats the best way. Otherwise you can not really prove he ever got them. Its not expensive at all and sometimes they are included with your attorneys fees.

Depending on where you live divorces don't have to expensive. You have to file papers with the court, then have the papers served to your husband, if he doesn't react, or disagree in any way, it's a straightforward process, within I think 30 days, your divorce is declared final, and you can get a divorce certificate a few weeks later. It costs about 200 for the papers, and about 200 to file them in court. Look at:

Here is a list of the official papers you need:
- AFFIDAVIT OF APPLICANT
- AFFIDAVIT OF SERVICE
- REQUEST FOR DIVORCE (WITHOUT ORAL HEARING)
.....OR REQUEST FOR DIVORCE (WITH ORAL HEARING)
- DIVORCE JUDGMENT (WITHOUT ORAL EVIDENCE)
.....OR DIVORCE JUDGMENT (WITH ORAL EVIDENCE)
- PRAECIPE TO NOTE IN DEFAULT
- NOTICE TO DISCLOSE
- STATEMENT OF CLAIM FOR DIVORCE
- UNDUE HARDSHIP CLAIMS ONLY
- REQUEST FOR CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE

Depending on the state you live in, you will likely need a process server... and it usually has to be a certified notarized copy of the pleadings.

I would call the local courts and ask them what is required. The reason they want a process server is so that they can see that the person was 1. served, 2. aware of the pleading, 3. knows the date for court in order to appear.

This is to cover the Judge's butt and yours when a default divorce judgment is ordered.

If the courts don't know what is required, you could always call your local sheriff's office, or the sheriff's office where your soon to be ex lives.

Good luck, and remember, divorces are so expensive because they are SOOO WORTH IT.

Have you talked to an attorney? If not, you should. If money is a problem contact your local Legal Aid office.

Talk to your attorney about having a police officer serve him the papers and ask if he can sign something threw the police to prove he got the papers and he did receive them so that he can't say he never got the papers when he actually did.

Stephen for now

Call the court house and ask them.
