My spouse has filed for a divorce. My spouse is not looking for any divison of assets that include the house or retirement. Can a judge impose a division of property even though we agreed on the property/assets? Basically we are parting our separate ways and my spouse wants nothing to do with my retirement or the house. If my spouse isn’t seeking alimony, can a judge impose that as well?
Also, since this is an uncontested divorce, do I need a lawyer?

I was just wondering if anyone knew what it cost to have an attorney handle my contested divorce. I live in California but she’s in Nevada and it’s much easier to go through Nevada. I have tried to do an uncontested divorce but have failed, she wont respond to any of my messages and she wont meet with me. I just want to have an idea on the price range so I can start saving up. Thank you all.
We had initially agreed on an uncontested divorce since we have no community property, or children of the marriage, we just wanted to go our separate ways and move on. After I started gathering the paperwork, she stop communicating with me and refuses to meet with me now. I have tried to do it the easy way to save us the trouble but she is being stubborn and simply will not respond to me. So I figured I would just let a lawyer do it for me, since it so difficult to make multiple trip to Nevada due to my line of work. I would rather do it uncontested but she’s not giving me much of a choice.

I’m 20, and my husband is 21, a current member in the military. (which is why we are married so young) We have been married for 9 months. We were high school sweethearts, First loves and dated for 3 years, until he graduated and left for college we broke up. I had moved on and dated this guy for a year. Completely fell for this guy, He was the only person I met that made me forget about my "now husband" everything was going great, until he joined the military. We tried to go out separate ways… Well my husband now, found me a day before he left for boot camp. We wrote letters back and forth, until he graduated. And we got married in December of 09, so that we could live together. About 3 months ago my ex, texted me after not talking for a year. I miss him dearly, and he is making me realize how much of my self I lost. He makes me happy. and I feel bad about it, all we do is talk. But the more I think about it, I don’t want to waist my life pretending to be happy. (fyi i broke up with my husband because he cheated on me, and he didn’t want to be tied down in college)
maybe I have past anger with my husband, but he doesn’t let me be myself. I can’t be goofy, I can’t have a bad day and want to just stay home. With him, its work, work, and more work. I come 3rd in his life. Yes, he loves me, but he just doesn’t give me what I need. I’m so young, and I’m already unhappy with my marriage, why should I stay if I know I wont be happy 5, 15, or even 20 years down the road. I don’t want to waist my life, and try and please my husbands every need. To top it all off, he’s deploying in two months. It truly make me sad, I just don’t have the same feelings for him any longer. I’m so confused. I really need advice!!!! Btw thanks for your time and reading my mess of a life! =)
Its not that I want to leave my husband for my ex. My ex, just made me realize that I haven’t been myself in a long time. How happy I use to be.

There are no children involved, no money issues, absolutely nothing involved. Just plain and simple, we want to go our separate ways. No fighting. Are lawyers still needed or can we both appear in front of a judge with some "form" filled out? Thanks.

I have a wonderful girlfriend- I foresee us getting married one day. But I am thinking that I would like for her to sign and agree to a prenup agreement. You see, I want to have money saved up for the car of my dreams. I have already told her that part.
I don’t intend nor hope that the marriage fails- but it could happen. You just never know. Hence, I want to know for sure that she wouldn’t try to take away that money that I save up, if we ever decided to go our separate ways. Does that make sense?
I am reasonably sure that an attorney would be able to find out about my secret account- certainly if she informed him/her of its existence. I hope and pray that this never happens- but I can’t predict the future.
So, I feel reluctant to talk to my sweetheart about this. If I try to see things from her point of view, I can understand why it may bother her if I wanted to have a prenup. It may even suggest that I feel that we may not stay together forever.
What do you think?

So I’m about to break up someone by letter and this is what I’ve written please let me know if it sounds sensitive enough and if it doesn’t seem to harsh and if I should change anything or not….please be completely honest.
Hi, Please read all of this before you reply. This is actually really hard to write but I just have to say it. I think we should stop talking. I know you’re going to be angry when you read this because you’ll think that I’ve lied to you about caring about you. I do really care about you and I never lied about loving you. But you have to understand I have to do what’s best for me. I have a future and we both knew from the get go you weren’t going to be in it. I’m extremely sorry if you think that makes me seem like a bad person. The thing is I think you have a bright future too and I want you to be happy and I can’t tell you how much I wish you all the happiness in the world and I hope you find someone who’s the perfect partner for you. But that person isn’t me.. I have my own life to live. This is really hard for me to write and I’ve honestly spent the whole time writing it second guessing myself and rethinking if I should send it or not. It would be so easy if I didn’t send it and I keep talking to you and I get even more attached… but I have to do the right thing and end it. It was amazing talking to you and I think you know me better then most people will ever know me.. and you do have a part of me with you to keep. I know it sounds cliché to say it’s me and not you but it’s 100% percent true. Maybe one day in the future we can talk again as friends but for now we need to go separate ways. I could give you an extremely detailed explanation but really I’ll just simplify it by saying my relationship with you is interfering in my personal life with Jay. So the best thing for ME is to end it.. I pray you can understand that and forgive me. You can reply to this if you wish to tell me what you think and if you have anything you think I should know before we say goodbye. Well really this is a goodbye but I’m just letting you know that your free to reply…. even if it’s just to tell me what a horrible person I am for doing this (which I most likely deserve). I do love you and again I wish you all the happiness in the world and I really have nothing but well wishes for you. Good luck in life.. I know you’ll be fine because you’re an amazing person, friend, and father and don’t let anyone tell you differently. Bye.
Love, Izzy
It’s an complicated situation and I can’t tell him in person!
