What do I do next if I was served divorce papers but did not file a response?

To protect your rights, you should file your Response as soon as possible. If you don't file a Response, a default may be entered against you blocking you from participating. Once a default is entered, the Petitioner can submit a Judgment resolving all issues how they would like. For example, the Judgment could assign you with the obligation to pay the other party's credit card debts, and award the other party all the assets. You mentioned that you agree with everything on the Petition, but the Petition doesn't state anything except "I want a divorce." The areas of disagreement typically revolve around the substantive issues: Who gets specific items of property? How much money is going to be paid or received for support? For how long? What is the specific child-sharing schedule going to be? Human nature being what it is, one person's idea of what is fair and reasonable is usually a little (or sometimes a lot) different than the other person's idea. You probably don't want someone else to make all the decisions for you. The filing of a Response allows you to have some input and say-so in the process. The information presented here is general in nature and should not be construed to be formal legal advice, nor the formation of a lawyer/client relationship.
