If a husband wants a divorce and the wife won’t file or sign and the husband wants one really bad and doesn’t have a lawyer and can’t afford one, what can he do to be granted one?

My ex wife and I are tryng to get divorced, long story short there was a family law standing pretrial order saying a bunch of stuff about not being able to get rid of stuff, add debts…etc. However, she went and moved down to south florida with her parents where she lied and said she was a single person and was put on the mortgage with her parents. Now I know she is not a "single" person as we are not divorced yet becasue she wont file necssary papers..but isnt that contempt..I mean she went out and got in on this debt with her parents..which I have no idea how she got approved since she does not work! Meanwhile I am stuck waiting on a divorce hearng in Aug. to deal with the fact nothing is being done. Should I have my lawyer file contempt charges? How do I notify anyone of her fraud saying she was a single person… technically that is a marital asset right?
All Iknow is after we went to mediation I we agreed would pay her 2 years back child support and let her dad adopt our child.. that was the last time I saw her. She packed up and moved with her parents. I looked it up on the internet where her and her parents are on the mortgage… but only the parents are on the deed. But the family law order said neither her nor I could incur unreasonalbe or unnecessary debts until the divorce in final. I would not be out for blood, but I went to mediation last year and once I agreed to let her dad adopt the child between us and she split town, her and he lawyer have iled to file necessary papers so we can get divorced and her lawyer will not communicate with mine… so it is back to court and I KNOW she will not be at the hearing in Aug. She isnt going to drive 8 hours for that. I am sure she will come up with some lame excuse and just have it drug out longer.

I am getting divorce and I dont want my lawyer to charge me for every question I have, so I’d like to know what is the answer of discovery about and how will it be used. I was a full time mom during my marriage and I am kind of nervous about the whole situation. Need help.

In other words, I am going through a divorce for financial reasons. I am not going to declare bankruptcy, but need legal assistance to deal with creditors. I have a small but steady source of income; enough to pay for a lawyer on a payment plan and enough to pay back what I will owe to bills and creditors, but the creditors WILL NOT work with me and I want to do it all through a lawyer.

I make too much to qualify for Legal Aid or any other assistance of that sort.

is being sexually inappropriate ? asking personal questions ,fishing for details about your sexual preferences, dropping hints that you could pay his bill with sex and hugging and trying to kiss you good-bye ?
in the middle of the negotiations for the divorce agreement ?

and would such a lawyer have a reputation with other lawyers that justw alking into court with him makes you look like a whore ?
also calling your house up until 11:30 at night ,6 times in one night until you get home to schedule the after hrs ( because his schedule is full) discussion when no one else in in the office before starting that inappropriate behavior ?
how do I prove it ? could he sue me for liable or slander if I don’t have video or recording ?

also the kiss was on my cheek but it was passionate and trying to work it’s way down my neck so I got the hell out of there.

Hi all. Would very much appreciate it if any of you could give me information on excellent divorce lawyers in Chennai in India. Require a lawyer urgently.

Does anybody know of a good lawyer in child custody cases who works with fathers? Im considering Rodney Hylton-Potts, has anyone used him before, is he good? I’ve heard good things about him but can’t access any success rates about him or any other lawyer for that matter!

I have several questions concerning a divorce I am going through. If anyone is an attorney, or has legal or divorce experience, that would be great. I feel and have been told that our divorce should be very simple- we were married for just over a year, both of us our college students, no kids, no real estate. We acquired only a few items during our marriage. The day we split up, my wife drained our savings account, not a ton of money, but still relatively a lot for college kids (around 00.) Now, I have recieved her divorce paperwork, and am preparing my answer. She is asking that I help pay the remainder of the lease in the apartment we were in, even though she is the only one living there. Also, she is asking for 0 dollars a month alimony. I’ve spoken with a lawyer and he said that if this were to make it to court (let’s hope it doesn’t) he would be very suprised if a judge ordered alimony in a case like this- not kids, we both are in school, only married a year. Also, he said it is unlikely that i would be required to help pay where she is living, and that a judge would rule that that money she took be split up. I’m hoping if her and I cannot work this out between ourselve that a mediator can. Would a mediator tell her that it is not likely she will get alimony? I would love to keep this out of court, and think that with how simple and low-key it is, we should be able to do that. Also, I have a classic car I’ve had since I was sixteen that I rebuilt with my father- she put that she wants part of that. My lawyer told me there’s no way, because it was mine long before she came into the picture, and since we were married such a short duration, it has not become a marital asset. Anyway, sorry to be so longwinded, I just really would like some opinions and some clarity on this subject, thank you.

id use "ladies and gentlemen of the jury" but there isnt a jury in divorce court is there? i know nothing of court. i just need some lines that are stereotypical, as i said. good lines that can be used in jest against lawyers. i have to write a paper where im a divorce court lawyer for zeus and hera, so its not serious. i just need some snappy lawyer lines.

Is it pretty normal for a grown adult to deal with depression and anger brought on by a parents divorce?

There is more to it then just the divorce. My sister (31yr) and I (24yr) caught my father (55yr) cheating on my mother. The women he was with was 35yr who has kids the same age as some of my nieces and nephews. He has moved this women into our house, spoils her children, and doesn’t really give us kids (5 kids) the time of day anymore. He told one of his confidants that if it wasn’t for my sister and I, he could still be married and have his mistress. He hasn’t tried to contact me in a while. I know he has a lot of anger for my sister because she got my mother a lawyer and blames a lot of things on her. I really don’t know how to deal with this situation. I feel that we have been replaced. ( Side story, My father had a child before i was born. He knew about him but never claimed him. I found out when i was 18 and my other sister and I found him. This forgotten child is now part our lives) So, I know my dad is capable of ignoring his kids. I never thought this would happen to me since i thought i shared a pretty good relationship with him.
