Connecting with a lawyer through a directory usually does not cost you anything; fees depend on the attorney you choose. In California divorces, you do not need the other party’s cooperation to request a default. You must first show proper service—by mail if you have an address, or by service by publication if you don’t. An attorney can handle this even if you live in Indiana.

  • Contacting a lawyer is typically free
  • Default requires proof of service
  • Publication is allowed if spouse is unreachable
