How do I get a divorce and have him pay so I can move on?

Answered by attorney Rebecca A Rainwater (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Landon Rainwater Robinson LLP
If you have to apply for state aid to support yourself and the kids the state will help you get a child support order. Also, you can go to the court house and go to the court facilitator's office. They will give you the forms and help you fill them out. You sound like you would qualify for a fee waiver which means you don't have to pay any fees to file for divorce. Your husband has a duty to support his family there is help available but you have to go find it.

Should any asset be considered community property in our marital settlement agreement?

Answered by attorney Heidi Pamela Lauer (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Heidi Lauer
If no one is contesting the pre-nuptial agreement, then, depending upon the terms thereof, there may be no community estate. This answer applies to California only, as other states may have different rules regarding pre-nuptial agreements.
