Ask a Lawyer: Wife left and closed all joint accounts and took everything

Posted by Dads Divorce in temporary , savings , Rules , Procedures , pendente , motions , MO , lite , assets , Ask A Lawyer , account

Question:

My wife left about a month ago and cleaned out all of our joint accounts. I was a widowed man with 2 boys ages 13 and 10 before I married her a year ago. My kids are mine, no adoption was ever done. She left a marriage to come to me and cleaned up in that marriage. She has her own seperate pre-marital money of over $300,000 in her name and I never asked to comingle that. However, what she did do was clean out 2 joint CD accounts totalling about 120k and our joint checking account of nearly 10k. One of the CDs was my children's college funds of $45,000 that had been saved from the their deceased mother's SSA survivor benefits. I'm at a loss here as to what I can get back. I have filed for divorce. She came back for a week at Christmas and then left after New Year's Day. What can I do?

Answer:

I suggest you file a PDL (temporary) Motion to prevent any assets from being spent, acquired, etc. Do so as soon as possible to protect those assets that exist. Also get together all of the documentation showing what has been taken from the banks, etc.
