What if my spouse cannot be found to serve the Tampa FL divorce papers?

If you are unaware where the respondent is residing at the time that you are seeking the divorce then you can have a diligent search completed. A diligent search is where a process server attempts to find the respondent through electronic means primarily. If the search comes back with an address then you would attempt to serve him or her there by personal service. If it comes back and there are no known addresses for the respondent, then you can serve by publication.  Schedule a free consultation with All Family Law Group, P.A. to answer your questions.
