Wyoming Divorce and Dissolution Resources

FamilyCourtHelp is an independent educational platform. It is not a court, law firm, government agency, or government partner. We organize and link to publicly available resources published by courts and government agencies. Official requirements may change. Always confirm current requirements with the applicable court or clerk.

A Wyoming divorce is filed in the District Court, and the paperwork you start with depends on whether you have minor children together and whether there is property to divide.

Wyoming's core family statutes live in the Wyoming Statutes Title 20 - Domestic Relations. In Wyoming, online filing is not open to a parent without a lawyer, so family papers are filed on paper with the clerk. The official sources below cover the petition documents, the statewide forms collection, and the court's own filing instructions.
