Frequently Asked Questions
What are the residency requirements for filing for divorce in New Orleans?

How long does a divorce take in Louisiana?
Louisiana law requires a 180-day waiting period from the date of filing if you have minor children, or 90 days if you do not. The total time depends on case complexity and court schedules.
