Question:

Being retired military and receiving a military pension, is there any way that my wife could waive her claim on my retirement or any other property?

Or is the state going to divide my property, namely my military pension, regardless?

Question:

How long does a temporary order of alimony remain in effect?

The temporary order we have been following has been in place for well over a year while we await trial for our divorce.

Question:

I owned half of my house prior to marriage and the other half of the house was transferred to me as a gift after my marriage, so the house is fully paid off with no contributions from my soon-to-be-ex-wife.

No marital funds were used for anything involving the purchase of the house, though both my wife and I live there as our primary residence.

Is this house now considered a "marital home" subject to equitable distribution property division laws?

Question:

My wife's divorce lawyer sent me a copy of the proposed final divorce decree that has me paying significantly more child support than I currently am paying as required by our temporary orders.

If approved, that amount of child support would create a financial hardship and prevent me from dong the things I like to do with my children, such as taking them shopping or going to baseball games.

What should I expect at this preliminary hearing regarding the child support issues as I'm aware of the significant economic impact it could have on me?

Question:

My divorce was several months ago, and my ex-wife's divorce lawyer has yet to draft the decree and submit to the judge to sign.

Are there any deadlines in place requiring the submission of an order to the court? What can I do if there is a time limit and they deadline has passed?
