Once that Petition is filed many people are very anxious to get things done and get the divorce done. That's all well and good however, you will have to exercise a bit of patience. Arizona has implemented a 60 day waiting period. This means that you cannot get divorced until 60 days after the date that your spouse is served with the petition. Use this time to get things in order (see my first several posts for specifically what I mean by that), make sure you have a good solid decree drafted and ensure a divorce is what you really want.
