To the best of my knowledge you need to file in the state where the marriage took place or is on file at the Register of Deeds Office. I understand that may be on the other side of the country. You can research Lawyers in the _state of the marriage_ on www.findlaw.com (Free searching). Make sure to call or email the Lawyers you found and ask them these questions. In your case since your soon to be Ex husband was active Military when you married you can look into a JAG - I am not sure what cases they cover and if you need to still be active military. Good Luck!
