Location: New York and California Hello, I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I don’t know much about this and need help. For context, this is in regard to my parents’ situation. My mom, 56, and my dad, 55, are currently separated just locationally. My mom currently resides in California, and my dad in New York.

My question is: it’d be better if we served him papers and commenced everything, but how would we if we don’t know where he lives? Also, both my parents can’t really afford lawyers so we would want to do it as smoothly and least costly as possible. If anyone has any advice please let me…
