Married in Hawaii in 2020. We received our marriage certificate in Hawaii and we are married in Japan.
However, my husband has been having problems with women for many years and was issued a VISA last week, but we want a divorce.
So I have the following questions. I would appreciate it if you know or can help me.
・ If my husband is currently in California, should I file for divorce in California ？ or in Hawaii ？
・ I read that if I file for divorce in Hawaii, I need to live in Hawaii. ？
・ I have been married for 3 years and have no children. I don't want any money from him, but I would like to cut the divorce costs in half. ？
・ I would like to know if there is a good lawyer.

I have been researching on my own, but my knowledge is still limited, so I would appreciate any advice from someone with more knowledge.

I don't have any experience with divorce, so I don't know, but rather than asking questions here, why don't you consult several attorneys?
An internet search will turn up several divorce attorneys who offer FREELY CONSULTATION. Since you will probably end up hiring an attorney to handle the divorce proceedings, I think it is important to find an attorney who will be a good advocate for you and work with you to make the divorce process as advantageous as possible for you. One idea would be to ask for a good lawyer here, but I think it would be very important to have a good match with Mr. K. I think it is difficult to recommend what kind of lawyer would be a good fit for you when you have no idea what kind of person Mr. K is and do not know him directly. I have always done at least 3 quotes when I was wondering which service to choose, and I was always satisfied with my choice.
I write "cross-quotes", but I don't mean that we decide on price, but rather that we meet and talk to each other in person and compare the results comprehensively. By hearing from more than one person, the issues become clearer and more obvious to me, and I gradually understand which person is likely to do their best to take care of me.
Some lawyers may not offer free initial consultations, but anyway, I think that if you search the Internet, briefly check their websites and word-of-mouth, and contact the ones you think would be a good fit, then meet with them in person and ask the above questions, you will be on the right track.
