You are right. I contacted one of the attorneys regarding our issue. He said: 1. For Legal separation, both of the parties have to agree, even in California. This is different from the other attorney I contacted. 2. Charges would be about $50K to $100K (at $400 per hour) depending on how long...

I tried asking my wife to meeting with a marriage counsellor so that we can begin the process of healing and get back to our lives. But she flatly refused saying that she has already started the process of "legal separation". She said the only thing she wants is 50% of all our wealth. I have...

But my mom lives outside the U.S and is not an U.S citizen. Not sure if this changes CA code 4400. Moreover my wife is not upset about financial support (in fact this is negligible, as mom can support herself financially). For my wife it's the moral support and visiting her often, is what upsets...

I have never questioned that. But I do know that she is conservative in her investment and keep her savings (or is it earnings) in her bank account (earning close to 0%). Moreover I have been giving her pocket money every month for the last 30+ years. To be fair, she does help our children (for...

The funny thing is she is completely dependent on me (for the last 35 years) on everything - her car services, auto insurance, health insurance, telephone bill, groceries etc. If she moves out of the house, do I have the power to stop paying for her telephone, auto insurance, health insurance...

I am leaning towards contacting a marriage counsellor. But my wife doesn't want. So, I am stuck with either waiting for her next move or for me to take proactively. She wants to move out of the house but wants me to pay for her rent. As it is I am paying for 100% of monthly expenses and I can't...

In case of legal separation, what happens to the Living Trust, which has most of the large value assets? Would our kids be impacted as the assets may need to be sold off? Is legal separation, unilateral, meaning if my wife decides to go for it. I have no chance to stop or defend? Since my wife...

Me and my wife have been married for over 35 years. We have 2 kids and both have moved out and are well settled. We live in California. For several years, my wife has been picking up fights related to my supporting my old mother, who is also legally blind (has macular degeneration). My dad...

Can the employer (major shareholder of the LLC) himself file a complaint for getting paid less? He is broke and demanding money from the other 2 members of the LLC. I thought employers can't demand money for working towards the LLC interests. We don't have any clause in the operating agreement...

We don't follow a clockin/clock out for the salaried employees and there's no employment contract. In case the employees file and they do win, does the LLC have to pay penalties and backwages? The LLC doesn't have any assets and in fact has more debts. What happens in this case?

We don't have any employment contracts, since ours is a new business and that too hit with the pandemic. They are paid a fixed salary and not hourly wages.

We are operating a restaurant in California. We have 3 employees - one of them is an employer (partner of our LLC). Due to the pandemic we have to close the restaurant for dine-in. So, we had to cut the hours and salary. Can these employees file a complaint with department of labor? Can...

Our operating agreement doesn't mention about salary to any members or who is the LLC manager. The LLC was formed online and so the operating agreement is default. Can we draft a resolution signed by the other partners (who own 55%) stating that the offending member would be passive and will not...

One of our partners, who has the large stake (45%) is severely alcoholic and fails to perform his designated tasks. Myself and another partner own 55% of the LLC. In spite of repeated requests and warnings, he doesn't take any interest in the LLC tasks. He is taking salary for the assigned tasks...
