Filing Your Divorce in Sacramento County
Sacramento County keeps all of its family law in one building. The William R. Ridgeway Family Relations Courthouse handles divorce for the whole county, which makes filing here simpler than in Los Angeles or San Diego, where the courthouse is decided by your zip code.
William R. Ridgeway Family Relations Courthouse
3341 Power Inn Road, Sacramento, CA 95826
Business hours 8.30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday — the county’s dedicated family law courthouse
We file there on your behalf, so the address above is for your reference rather than your diary.
- One courthouse for the whole countyEvery Sacramento County divorce is filed at the Ridgeway Family Relations Courthouse, 3341 Power Inn Road, open 8.30 a.m. to 4 p.m. There is no wrong building to file in.
- $435 to fileThe standard California fee, with no local surcharge. Riverside and San Francisco charge $450. Form FW-001 waives it if paying would be a hardship.
- A free self-help center in the same buildingRoom 314 on the third floor, Monday to Thursday 8.30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday mornings. Free, walk-in or by appointment, though wait times vary and staff cannot complete your paperwork for you.
- Six months in California, three in the countyOne spouse must meet both before the court will take the case. Sacramento draws people from Placer, Yolo and El Dorado counties, so this one is worth checking.
None of this is advice about your case — it is the practical detail of how this county works, which is the part most people cannot find in one place. If you would rather hand the whole thing over, that is what we are for.
Sacramento County Divorce Plans and Pricing
Two flat-fee plans cover almost every uncontested divorce in the county. Which one you need depends on whether there are children, property or debts to divide — not on where in Sacramento County you live. The court’s filing fee is separate and goes to the court.

Testimonials
Clients Love California Divorce Pros
Our clients consistently tell us how much easier the process was than they expected. Here are a few of their stories in their own words..
Nancy was always available when I needed her and had such a calm, reassuring way about her that truly put me at ease. This whole experience has been really difficult for me, but for the first time I felt like I could breathe knowing she was handling things the right way.
If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, and affordable, I can’t recommend Nancy enough. She made one of the hardest times in my life so much easier, and I’m forever thankful for her help.
Their team has consistently demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and a clear understanding of the documentation process. Clients have shared how streamlined and straightforward the service was, often noting how much stress was alleviated thanks to the team’s responsiveness and support. It’s been a pleasure working alongside a group that brings the same level of care and attention to detail that I strive to offer in my own practice.
and extremely professional. She was able to get my judgment approved quickly at an affordable fee .
Common Questions
Do I have to live in Sacramento County to file here?
One spouse must have lived in California for six months and in Sacramento County for three months before filing in this county. We check this on the free call, because filing in the wrong county means starting over.
Do we both have to agree?
You can start without your spouse’s agreement or participation. If they never respond, we prepare the paperwork for a default judgment. What we cannot help with is a genuinely contested case.
Do I have to go to the courthouse?
Usually not. We file for you, and most uncontested Sacramento County divorces are decided on the paperwork without a hearing.
How long will it take?
California requires six months from the date your spouse is served. No service can shorten that. What we can do is make sure nothing is rejected along the way, so six months does not become nine.
Are you attorneys?
No. We are registered and bonded Legal Document Assistants. We prepare and file documents at your direction, and we do not give legal advice or represent you in court.
