If your spouse already has an attorney, you or your attorney can mail the documents directly to your spouses attorney. If your spouse does not have an attorney, then the response and counter-petition must be served either via a process server or certified mail.
Once you and your attorney have completed your response and counter-petition they must be filed at the family desk at the court clerks office. After the response and counter-petition have been filed you need to serve your spouse.
