Question:

Can the income of a second job after the divorce has been final be used for purposes of calculating child support?

Question:

I would like to know how to handle child support calculations while I am currently unemployed during our divorce settlement negotiations.

My soon-to-be-ex-wife thinks my child support payments should be based off my high-paying job that I was fired from several months ago. However, I am currently collecting unemployment as my only income.

My concern is I will not be able to return to that salary level even though my child support payments could be based off that income. How do I address this situation?

Also, does child support normally start after the execution of the marriage settlement agreement or after the divorce has been finalized?

Question:

My alcoholic wife's disease has driven me to seek advice on divorce.

Nothing has been filed yet, but I am increasingly concerned for my children's safety.

If my wife is intoxicated, do I have the legal right to take the children and move them away from her?

Question:

I was awarded the marital home in the divorce that is currently worth less than what we purchased it for.

My divorce decree states that I need to refinance or sell the home or I owe my ex an additional sum of money.

I am unable to sell or refinance because the home is so upside down, and if I foreclose on the property, my ex-wife says she will sue me for ruining her credit score.

What options are available to me for dealing with the marital home?

Question:

I was recently back in court for a divorce decree modification and my ex-wife had a new divorce lawyer, but I never received notice of this from the court.

After checking with the court clerk, I was told that her attorney never filed an appearance on behalf of my ex-wife.

Is this legal?
