Where can I find additional information about divorce?

We hope the following links to outside sources may be helpful.

The New Mexico Courts website provides court forms that you may need if you wish to get a divorce.

Law Help New Mexico explains who can get a divorce in New Mexico and discusses residency requirements.

WomensLaw.org is unrelated to the above organizations and cannot vouch for the accuracy of their site. We provide these links for your information only.

You will find more information about divorce, including the risks of taking your children out of state while a divorce is pending, on our general Divorce page. To watch brief videos about divorce in Spanish with English sub-titles, go to our Videos page. Lastly, learn more about the court process on our Preparing for Court – By Yourself page.
