    How do I find out if I am legally divorced?
    About 13 years ago, my wife and I lived in Florida and separated. Soon after I moved back home to pa. I didn't speak to her until about a year later, and she told me that she had filed for divorce using abandonment. How would I know if I was legally divorced. I never got or signed any papers and we never went to court.

    Do you know what court she filed in? That is where you would start. Did you forward any addresses to her so you could get paperwork ?

    no. we lived in north fort myers fl. I was never asked for my address. I thought I would have had to sign something for the divorce to be final.

    The you could try asking the nearest court there and see if anything was filed. It may even be online.
