I was married in Russia. Now my Russian wife has become an American citizen. I want to get divorced in Russia while living in the US , so I can remarry in Russia again without complications. Will I also need to get divorced here in my country?

Thank you for your helpful email. \nMy partner is a Russian citizen. She has given her mothers home as permanent resident. She is trying to divorce under Swiss law but her husband refuses and it can take 5 years. She is temporarily with me in the UK. Her husband has not issued any divorce proceedings. \nShe has also just filed papers in Russia. The marriage took place to her Swiss husband in Switzerland and she has filed papers with the apostille stamp to the Russian Court in Kineshma. She has filed with apostille stamp her Swiss marriage certificate. She has no children with this man. \nThe city of residence is Kineshma near Ivanovo. \nAfter she has filed the papers what happens next? \nWe have a lawyer in Swiss in the town where her husband lives and he is able to contact her husband. \nIt sounds like there is this three month period- what if he refuses to co-operate, for example if he is sent papers and refuses to sign them or he goes traveling overseas for a few months? \nIf he refuses to cooperate how long after this period will the divorce be issued? \nYour help is much appreciated.

How can I divorce my American husband in Moscow? I'm working in the States, but I’m also a resident in Moscow. Thus, we got married in Malta and by the local law I'm authorized to obtain a divorce either States or Russia. Plus, I would like to know cost to hire you.

I have a complex question. I have a friend who is an Israeli citizen, who is facing deportation. He was married ten years ago, in Russia (the Ukraine). His wife is also Russian, now a citizen of Israel. My friend is currently being held for criminal charges--attempted grand larceny. It's a case which in all probability will be dismissed, but upon dismissal my friend will be transferred to an immigration holding facility. Thereafter I believe he will most likely be deported, because he did not have a permit/license to work and has no ties to this country, and no visa. He is in love with an American woman and she is in love with him, but he has been avoiding divorcing his first wife. Now he thinks marrying our American friend could be the only thing to keep him from being deported, but I don't even know what that would entail. It certainly seems like a long shot, not just personally complicated. What would be involved in obtaining the divorce? Is it necessary to go to Russia? Can he and his first wife file here, and what is the likely timeframe?

Would it be possible to verify first for me if I am divorced or not. \nThank you for your time. J.

We talked a couple of days ago about a divorce case for my sister. I talked with her afterwards, and found out that her husband's official address is not in Saint Petersburg, but in the same town close to Archangelsk, although he currently lives in Saint Petersburg, and does not plan to attend the hearing.

My partner is Russian citizen. She has been married to a Swiss man for 2 years and living in Switzerland. She has Swiss B permit. Her husband is refusing under Swiss law to give a divorce, he can refuse for 5 years. Can she divorce under Russian law if she remains in Swiss or does she need to return to Russia? What happens if her husband refuses to give divorce under Russian law? Approximately how long will the process take?
