How do I reverse a default order against me?

My wife is seeking a divorce against me and has filed paperwork with the Court in Miami. We are both from the Philippines and I was back there visiting with my family when she filed. Apparently she lied to the court and told them that she had served me with the paperwork because when I returned from my trip, I received a “default order” in the mail. It says that the case is proceeding to court because I failed to respond to what my wife filed. I didn’t even know she had filed anything until I got back from the Philippines and she never gave me notice of anything. No sheriff or anyone else ever served me with anything, either. What do I need to do to get this order of default thrown out and be able to participate in the divorce case? I don’t agree with what she wants and I need to defend myself.
