How can I force my ex to take my name off of the mortgage loan?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Your mortgage was a contract entered into with a third party during your marriage. Your divorce has no effect on that third party contract. You must negotiate with the bank yourself if you feel you should no longer be responsible for the debt you entered into. Your divorce decree could have mandated a sale of the home, but it sounds like it did not.

Does my ex wife have grounds to have the court recalculate the support agreement or has the court made the proper calculation?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
The court calculation is the one used for the determination of support, it is not for the calculation of actual taxes.

Answered by attorney Zoe Ann Meigs (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Office of Zoe Meigs, P.C.
You may certainly file for divorce.  Once you file, there is a 60 day waiting period before you may finalize the divorce.  You may either hire an attorney to represent you in the case or you may try to do it yourself using forms that you find online or elsewhere. Grounds for divorce may be "insupportability" which means that you are not able to get along in a marriage. There are very restrictive and limited grounds for annulment, but perhaps you meet them.  1. Under age 18. 2. Under the influence at marriage ceremony. 3.  Impotency of spouse. 4.  Fraud, duress or force. 5.  Mental incapacity. 6.  Concealed divorce. 7. Marriage less than 72 hours after license issued. For each of these, once you discovered the problem you must no longer cohabit with the spouse. Divorce divides any property accumulated during the marriage or confirms that each spouse's property in his or her possession is her separate property.  Annulment only treats the marriage as never existing and no property is divided or confirmed.
