What is Conciliation Counseling?
Conciliation Counseling is offered by the Superior Court under the authority of Arizona law (ARS§ 25-381) for spouses who are considering or who are in the process of divorce. The focus of this brief counseling is to assist spouses in making an informed and thoughtful decision regarding their future. A petition for Conciliation Counseling puts a stay or hold on the divorce for up to 60 days; and petitions for annulment, dissolution of marriage or legal separation cannot be filed during that time period.
