Hi Sergio,
If you can locate her, you can serve her with a petition or dissolution of marriage; she might even sign it with you. If you cannot locate her, you can demonstrate to the Court your efforts to locate her and if permitted, publish the petition over a period of weeks and thereby obtain service by publication. You probably need to speak with a lawyer and discern whether you can handle this matter on your own and to discuss the drawbacks of service by publication. There is no requirement of having a lawyer but you will definitely find it helpful to have one.
