Filing Your Rhode Island Divorce

The basic steps for filing for a divorce in Rhode Island are as follows:

  2. You then serve your spouse with the divorce documents and provides him/her with the documents he/she needs to complete and file.
  3. Both spouses and a witness (who can testify to your residency) attend the divorce hearing.
  4. After waiting the required 90 days after the divorce hearing, the judge finalizes the divorce by signing the Final Judgment.
