My first name is spelled wrong on divorce papers

There is no such thing as a "poormans divorce" - either you have been served with a Summons or you have not been. The only way you can tell is to show it to someone who knows the appropriate form - that person is a lawyer. And no - there is no requirement that you sign anything in advance.

I am sorry that you are going through this. More than likely your husband prepared the court papers himself or had someone in court prepare them and then they were served on you, you do not have to sign the divorce papers until you are ready and only if you agree with the provisions. You have a lot of misinformation which is not your fault, but you should meee with either a local attorney and chat with him or her or meet with legal services to help you undertand. The courts are there to listen and protect you. Take care and Hopep that things work out.
