What to Do if You've Been Served with Hawaii Divorce Papers

If you have been served with a Hawaii Complaint for Divorce or other court papers, you must act immediately to protect your rights.  Depending on the kind of court papers that were served on you, you have as few as 20 days to file a legal response.  If you fail to file a response before the filing deadline, the Family Court may enter a “default judgment” against you, granting your spouse everything he or she asks for regarding child custody, child support, spousal support, property division, etc.  Call our Honolulu divorce lawyers immediately if you have been served with court papers of any kind.

Our Honolulu family law attorneys can provide a free telephone consultation and analysis of your case.
