Texas Divorce - Waiver of Service

Filing Waiver of service is a step within Texas Divorce - Step by Step . In a Texas divorce, a "waiver of service" is a document the non-filing spouse signs to acknowledge receipt of the divorce papers, thereby bypassing formal delivery by a constable or process server. This expedites the process but does not imply agreement with the divorce terms; rather, it indicates awareness of the proceedings. The non-filing spouse retains the right to respond to safeguard their interests. Rules for waivers vary by location, so consulting with a lawyer or the court where you're filing is advisable.
