Ask A Lawyer: Am I Entitled to Alimony and Retaining the Home?

Dec 14, 2009

Question: My wife left me on October 1st but hasn't filed for divorce. I'd like to file for divorce, seek alimony, as well as retain the home. In the eyes of the court, is her action considered abandonment? Is she entitled to everything in the home if she left?

Ask A Lawyer: Can She Regain Joint Custody?

Aug 03, 2009

Question:

My daughter and her ex share joint custody of their child.  A while ago, my daughter moved to Arizona where just last year she began having some problems and sent her daughter to stay with dad until she was better. During that time, the dad filed abandonment papers and my daughter lost custody. A registered document was mailed to my daughter, but it was sent to her old address so my daughter never received it.

Can she regain joint custody and how much does this process cost? Can this be done free through court documents or a legal library?

Ask a Lawyer: My wife left me and took our child. What rights to I have to see him or get custody?

Jul 05, 2009

Question:

My wife took my son away without any discussion. What rights do I as a father have to my son? I can better provide for him and live at our residence. I do not want to lose my son and want to see him as much as possible. Why is it ok for the mother to take the son away when there is no violence or danger in the home? What about the rights of a very loving father? I am upset about this and want my son back, any help would be appreciated.

Answer:

I am not licensed in Illinois and therefore cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of that State. Your wife has no more rights to take your child that you do to take the child from her. She can of course move out of the marital residence, but you can pick your son up from school, go see him etc. However, you do not want to offset her bad actions by committing the same mistakes she is currently making. I suggest you retain an attorney, file for divorce and seek a temporary hearing on custody. Your wife's bad acts by keeping your child away from you can be used against her to show that she is not a good co-parent. Co-parenting is a large factor in many custody determinations.

Ask A Lawyer: Abandonment?

Apr 10, 2009

Question:

Do I have the right to claim abandonment or something along those lines if after purchasing a home with me in Indiana, my wife decides to send the kids back to NJ with her parents and then tells me on the plane that she and the kids are not coming back?

We have been apart for over a year now.

Ask A Lawyer: The Mother Card

Mar 27, 2009

 

Question:

My wife left me and the 5 children, filed for divorce, moved into a studio apartment, bought a small sports car that does not seat enough (5 children).

Now she expects me to move closer to her new life, or she says she will fight me for full custody.

How much weight does the "mother card" carry?
