What do I need to do if I don't want to proceed with my military husbands petition for divorce from his home state?

Bradley Roger Gammell
Answered by attorney Bradley Roger Gammell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Gammell & Associates
The proper way to contest personal jurisdiction in the divorce suit is for you to file what is called a Special Appearance.   In it you can claim that you do not have sufficient contacts with Texas for the State to exercise jurisdiction over you.  There are exceptions.   For example, if you were a resident of Texas when you were married and then moved out of state in conjunction with your husband's orders, then Texas considers you to remain a Texas resident for divorce purposes.   One other point:  Your husband's claim that you will get nothing in Texas is simply wrong.   Among other things, you will be entitled to a pro-rata portion of his military retirement (assuming that he makes it to 20 years).  In addition, Texas values assets like retirement as of the date of divorce whereas California values them as of the date of separation.   Therefore, you would be entitled to slightly more retired pay if you divorce in Texas.

What will I be entitled to in a divorce if we have a prenup?

John Joseph Burke
Answered by attorney John Joseph Burke (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Burke Law Group, PLLC
Simply stated, a Will has no bearing at all in a divorce proceeding. In a divorce, a prenuptial agreement will likely be controlling for those items fully addressed in the agreement, assuming the prenuptial is correctly structured and not vulnerable to legal act. There are many ways that a prenuptial agreement can be found invalid or void, but that is another question that should best be addressed with an attorney. Also, the long-term length of your marriage could also play a large factor in the analysis of you situation. I would recommend speaking to an attorney; many offer a no-cost initial consultation.

If there has been a material and substantial change of circumstances, orders (including child support) can be changed. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
