It would be wise for you to at least consult with an experienced family law attorney to review your matter. That being said, in Arizona most county superior court facilities include a self service center where you can obtain forms and instructions on the preparation and filing of a petition for dissolution. Those forms and instructions are also available online.

If after 10 years I found that I'm still married to my ex husband who remarried two years after me, what should we do?

You should first confirm whether or not your divorce was ever finalized. If it was not, it should not be difficult to complete the action now. You can ask the court to make the divorce effective back to a date prior to your next marriage. It is important for you to have the divorce finalized if there are provisions for child support, alimony, or the division of retirement benefits. If the new wife gets a divorce decree that gives her a portion of her husband's retirement benefits before you get a decree giving you part of his retirement, her order will take precedence of your order and could affect the amount you receive. You should contact an attorney to review the status of the first divorce to see what other issues might arise if your husband next divorce is entered before you can finalize your proceeding, and to determine the effect on your current marriage.

Can my divorce go quickly? How?

If you've been separated for over 180 days (365 days after the baby is born), or if your husband has been convicted of a crime punishable by hard labor (generally a felony), you would probably be entitled to an immediate divorce.
