my marriage was not working. My husband left Las Vegas where our family had resided for 3 years and went to his home town in Missouri. I made the mistake of my life allowing our 8yr old little girl to go with him to see her grandparents for two weeks then husband was suppose to bring her back to me. The husband has proved awful character and i’ve found him to be the most dishonest person I have ever met, so before they left to Missouri I wrote a very specific binding contract stateing we both have agreed for April to go on the trip and He has to promise to have her back in las Vegas with me by a certain date. This was on July 12,2004. He rarely lets me talk to her, If he wants something he Uses our girl for blackmail. Just this month After lying to a lawyer and also family courts about having no idea where i was, he managed to divorce me and was given sole physical cousody. I lost by default. I wish I could tell the whole story! Bottom line, I need legal rep.I pray 4 help

we were married in arizona 1998, Little girl born in arizona 1997, husband daughter and myself moved to las vegas 2002, husband left with daughter to missouri 2004. Husband filed divorce in Missouri Dec 2005
when he didnt bring my baby home like he agreed in the contract I immediatly tried to file kidnapping charges. Police said I couln’t because we are married and he is her legal father. They said he can take our daughter anywhere he wants. I need to mention that when husband left las vegas he assured me rent was paid all the bills were current. Things turned out to be exactly opposite. I was evicted from apt within the week, My vehicle was repossed and all the sudden I had nothing! No daughter no husband no home,no vehicle, no phone. I was in shock and depressed, totally sick at heart, but I’ve managed to keep my hope and my faith that soon my baby girl will come home to me. I love her more than words can say. I know God is on our side. Still I pray!

I have a friend who wants to get a divorce, He lives in MA. and the wife in CT. Three children, the child support has been established by the court for the past 3 years. What he wants to know is this, can he get a simple divorce online ? There are no assets to speak of at all on either side. Would an online, simple divorce work? Thanks, he will appreciates all your answers.

Hello,

I need help before I see a lawyer. I bought a property under my mom’s name about 3 years ago. My mom is getting divorce in a few months and I wouldn’t like my property to harm her when they separate their properties( they have 3 more properties). Can I do a quitclaim deed to my name before she initiates the divorce?. Please help me !

Thanks B

I am going to be divorcing my husband of 3 years (together for 11 years). We have a 2 year old daughter and own a house. He has stated that he wants to make life and the divorce difficult for me. I need a lawyer who is willing and able to get down and dirty if needed.
My husband spent the night away from home and told me that he didn’t have to tell me where he had been, who he had been with, or what he had been doing. He also spent 00 out of our joint account in a month (leaving me with to pay all the household bills). I haven’t worked for the past 2 years (since I had our daughter), but before that I worked for 3 years and he didn’t.
He also threatened to send someone to kill me if he didn’t get everything he wanted in the divorce.

so i’m 14 and a freshman in high school. for about like 3 years i’ve wanted to move to southern california. i live in northern california right now in a nice city but i’m getting sick of it and i hate the weather here because it’s always foggy.

but the thing is i’ve never even been to southern california. i think it’s because like everyone i know wants to go to southern california in college and because of shows like laguna beach and the hills.

the reason i want to is because i want to start all over and i don’t really care if i’d leave my friends..so i’d like to move ANYWHERE but southern california sounds so nice. i just want to live somewhere warm. and i like california.

and i know, it’s not my decision but my parents’. but my parents might get divorced and my mom said she wants to move out with me. and i was like, "can we go somewhere far?" and i was like what about southern california. and she asked me why and i said because the weather is nicer.

i just want to start all over SOO bad and i’m so sick of this city. do you think this is a really stupid idea? what do you think of this? i want to go to college somewhere in southern california anyway.

My wife and I got married way too soon. We got married after knowing eachother for 5 months, and had a baby right away. We didn’t move in with one another until after the wedding. The relationship went downhill from the wedding ceremony. We separated 7 months into the marriage and filed for divorce a few months later.

During the time we lived together it was horrible. I moved into her house, since it was bigger and I took a job closer to her home with the plan that the potential increase in income would allow her to be a stay at home mom. I promised that she could stay home in 3 years maximum and I would handle the finances, because she is horrible with money and she worries about money a lot. She’s a teacher and gets paid once a month, and I’m a financial advisor…so budgeting, saving, and money management are my strong suits.

Fast forward to today…we are approaching or 3 year anniversary…the divorce has been put on hold and we have been working on the relationship for about 10 months now. I found that she intentionally delayed and stalled the divorce because she had second thoughts from the day she filed.

To make a long story short I have learned that this woman that I thought I married who comes off as a strong and independant single mother is a sensitive and scared woman who is afraid of being alone & realizes that her indepedance for so long causes her to push people away even when she isn’t trying, because she comes across as selfish…mainly because she’s so use to taking care of herself and her child (now children) by herself with the assistance of her parents at times.

Having taken the time to know this woman under the surface I realize that she NEEDS me to be strong and even domineering. I’m more of the let’s make decisions together kind of man, but I am learning that she prefers to be directed and told…even though she comes across as if she’s doing things her way. This includes everything from initiating sex to deciding what to eat for dinner. She expects me to take charge and/or make decisions.
OKAY…NOW THAT YOU HAVE THE BACKGROUND HERE IS THE ISSUE.

I am back living in my home which is 85 miles away from my new job. I can make a significant income at my new job, but it may take a year or two to get to the 6 figure mark. For now I have a base salary which is half her income.

Now we are at the stage of our reconciliation where we’re talking in a round about way about how much we hate being apart at night, however she won’t come right out and ask me to move back in and I don’t think that I should ask her if I can move back in.

I’m struggling financially and I have my own mortgage and bills to pay, but at the same time this 85 mile commute is killing me…not to mention 2 nights a week I have graduate school until 10pm and I have to wake up at 4:30AM to beat traffic.

I’m going to eventually have to get a place closer to my job. If I rent out my house rents in the area are less than half my mortgage so I’ll only be able to afford a dump in LA…and I have 50% custody of our child and also two older children that I spend a lot of time with.

Moving back in with my wife will help our relationship develop faster, because right now we visit for a few hours or overnight and I go back home. If I moved in I wouldn’t be able to significantly help with any expenses until I start making commissions on my job and get back on my feet financially.

However, there is this 800 pound gorilla in the corner whenever I come over because I am leaving in the morning…or that night. When I come over and spend a day or evening she is so relieved because I watch the kids while she does the things she needs to do…or WANTS to do such as rest or hobbies. The kids are calmer and better behaved when I’m there. I believe in strict bedtimes, so she gets a lot of time to herself when I’m over.

We’ve talked about the "details" of our marriage which will have to be worked out in order for this to last…and the only real detail is living together. She has expressed wanting to figure out the "details", but has not come out and said she wants me to move back in.

Another issue is when I did live with her she made my life a living hell. So much so that I vowed to never live in another woman’s house. Even before we split up I knew that in order for me to feel comfortable in our marriage we would have to have our own house together. However right now with the real estate market in Southern California us buying a house together is not in the question. An apartment in LA would cost more than either of our mortgages.

I feel that if I take the lead and say I want to move in that she would go along, but I don’t feel it is my place to ask. I was the one that left initially; however she admits to created a situation to make me want to leave.

This is so complicated, can you please offer some advice. By the way…while going to counseling is probably a good ans
While going to counseling may be a good answer it is not an option right now for various reasons.

Um I need some help, here’s a little background info. so hopefully you can give me some advice. I went to a private school until i was 13 and in 8th grade. i was one of the most popular girl in the school, had loads of friends, and was very happy. But then my parents got divorced and i had to move to a new school in a new, snotty, beach town in orange county (think laguna beach but worse). it has been 3 years since i moved. i only made one close friend but she ditched me. i feel like i have grown to become more mature than my peers and i am not interested in their dumb drama- who hooked up with who, etc. i really couldn’t care less. i don’t know how i’m going to handle this last year of highschool can anyone give me any tips? and my school is very cliquey. the people are so snobbish. i don’t know what to do. i get along so much better with adults. i feel like im a 30 year old trapped in a 16 year old right now it’s so frustrating what do i do?
