It is usually where one maintains a residence or pays taxes for example.

Unfortunately I cannot provide legal advice.  I can only provide general information and you can sue that based on your facts to see where you fit in.

So I cannot state which state a person may or may not file in based on their specific situation unfortunately as only a personal attorney can provide that. If you contact jag they may be able to provide an attorney

I wish you the best during the proceedings.  I know this can be a stressful time.
