📄 The Joint Petition Form Hasn’t Changed | Los Angeles Divorce

Many people believe California’s new joint divorce law created a new filing process—but the form itself hasn’t changed.

Right now, the only joint petition form that exists is FL-800, and it still limits joint filing to short marriages with no children and minimal assets. That form has not been updated to reflect the new law.

Until new forms and court procedures are released, the joint divorce process remains exactly the same as before.

📌 What This Video Covers:

✔ What FL-800 is used for

✔ The current limits of the joint petition form

✔ Why the new law hasn’t changed filings yet

✔ What courts are actually accepting right now

✔ How to avoid relying on outdated or misleading information

🧠 Key Insight:

A new law does not change the divorce process unless the court updates its forms and filing rules. Until FL-800 is revised or replaced, joint divorce filings remain limited.
