Will I be liable for palimony if I accept my girlfriend's invitation to relocate to her residence?

Morghan Leia Richardson
Answered by attorney Morghan Leia Richardson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richardson Legal PLLC
New York law generally doesn't provide for palimony and in NJ where it has been more common, some new laws and rules have made it much more difficult to obtain. If you are getting married, consider a prenup to protect your assests. If you aren't getting married, consider entering into a contract or lease so that the terms of the living arrangement are spelled out. Good luck.

Can I file for divorce in the US even if she is not willing to?

Divorce lawyer at Ruiz Law Group PC
If you have been a resident of NY for two years and you file first your action for divorce should take precedence. The length of time an action takes depends on how much she fights the divorce.

If a woman owns everything when a man marries her, is he entitled to anything when they divorce?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
You can't scam an honest man, so it sounds like there may be more to it than being set up. Regardless, you are entitled to one-half the community property. If she kept her assets separate from you, she probably has a good case that you can't touch them. On the other hand, to the extent that community funds were used to enhance or pay for her property, you may be entitled to one-half of that amount. I suggest you talk with a local attorney and see if there is anything for you. Oh, and if you signed a pre-nup and had the opportunity to run it by an attorney, then you are really out of luck.
