    Marital home - equitable distribution

    Mortgage crisis? I don't know if you've noticed, but getting a mortgage this day and age is slim to none without really good credit and because all of mine is wrapped up in the first mortgage, I fall on the side of "none" to get approved for another house. Besides, I was wanting to buy a house...

    Not filing response to divorce decree

    Is this normal? My Atty has a response drawn up, but he says that we don't have to file a response if we can come to a settlement before our waiting period for the divorce is up. Is this right? There were so many lies in his divorce decree and to not answer and let all of that stay as is is a...

    Well, good news, I've had a job my whole adult life :) One plus! I do not really have a proper place to stay, because during the order of protection hearing, he was also awarded the residence and I am unable to get any of my belongings to date. All of this came about because we seperated and...

    Marital home - equitable distribution

    Thanks I was looking for the legalities of the situation, and I guess from a legal aspect, either of us can be awarded the home, but from a practical standpoint, who's a better candidate to get awarded the home? We actually didn't buy the home until he was home from jail, approximately 11...

    Best Interest of the Children - alcohol/drugs

    Again, I never said he shouldn't be a daddy. But primary parent is scary based on his past. But yes,, I am prepared to answer the questions about his convictions, background checks. And I do feel he is presently a threat.... but that's not something I can share here. Thank you so much for...

    Best Interest of the Children - alcohol/drugs

    You can only take recovery one day at a time... if I go in saying I will never drink again, I'm not following the beliefs of recovery. And I don't know if you have heard of jailhouse talk, but I fell for it. We married, he relapsed on dope and got thrown in jail. I decided to stay with him...

    Best Interest of the Children - alcohol/drugs

    The temp order came during an order of protection hearing... neither of us had filed for divorce yet, and my Atty did try to bring up his past but was shut down because "it was not the forum". As far as his past goes, it spans 15 years and involves sex offense, firearms, and drugs. Just got...

    Best Interest of the Children - alcohol/drugs

    I never said he was an unfit dad, but I'm not an unfit mom either. And quite honestly, I only lived with him for 3 months before we got pregnant (with twins), so I didn't seek him out to have kids with and I didn't know his entire prison/criminal history prior to getting pregnant, it was only...

    Best Interest of the Children - alcohol/drugs

    My soon-to-ex husband is pointing a finger at me as being an alcoholic after a domestic issue one night and to my lawyers advice, I admitted myself into an outpatient program. The problem now is that it seems to be the primary focus of our divorce case and child custody, however my STBX is a...
