Where can I find additional information about divorce?

Louisiana State Bar Association has a divorce brochure with information on spousal support and one with information on community property.

LawHelp.org has information about covenant marriage.

WomensLaw.org is unrelated to the above organizations and cannot vouch for the accuracy of the information on their sites. 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.
