Hi Everyone,
Let me start by saying I have not physically seen my legal wife in 13 years. I have been to and paid 2 lawyers and since she has not cooperated, I have been told that I cannot legally divorce her. We (lawyer and I) did get her to sign the petition for the divorce and have it filed with the court. What I am told by both lawyers however is that since she had children (which I am not the father of) that she must appear in court and testify that they are not mine for the judge to grant this divorce. My current lawyer has sent me a letter stating that unless we find her (address she gave is not hers, but the parents address) and have her appear in court there is nothing he can do. Is there anything that can be done or am I stuck being not able to move forward with my life at this point? Please any advice or if you think you can get this done please message me.
