FAQs

Q: What Should I Do If My Spouse Filed For Divorce?

If your spouse files for divorce and you anticipate conflict or wish to raise your own disputes, contact an attorney. With a legal representative at your side, you can protect your best interests and parental rights. Even if there is no major disagreement, a lawyer can still inform you of your rights and ensure that you are aware of any impact your decisions may have.

Q: Who Pays Child Support?

There are very specific guidelines and rules when it comes to child support payments. But ultimately, the idea is to provide your children with the same support they would have had prior to the divorce. Often, the responsibility of child support payments falls on the parent without physical rights and responsibilities. In these matters, you and your ex-spouse may choose to reach an agreement on your own regarding the amount. The court will then review your numbers to ensure that they adhere to the guidelines. On the other hand, if both parents cannot agree, then a hearing will be set to settle the matter.

Q: Who Gets The House?

Again, unless you and your ex-spouse can agree on who will remain in the home or whether you will sell it and split the profits, the court must intervene. Generally, if someone does remain in the marital home, they do so with a stipulation. This could mean until their circumstances change or the youngest child reaches maturity. In that scenario, when the child turns 18, the parent occupying the house must choose to buy out the other spouse or sell the home and divide the proceeds.
