Can I get alimony and sole custody of our children if I divorce my husband?

Answered by attorney Jessica M Cotter (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Firm of Jessica M. Cotter, P.L.L.C.
In Arizona you do not need a reason to get a divorce, other than that your marriage is irretrievably broken, with no prospect of reconciliation. The court will not give Spousal Maintenance (alimony) unless you meet the elements set forth in A.R.S.25-319. The Court looks at the best interest of the children when deciding who has the final legal decision making authority ( Sole custody). The court does not consider cheating when deciding on these two issues. I recommend contacting an experienced family law attorney regarding the divorce process.

I am in texas can my wife be granted my home

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
If the home was purchased during the marriage, it is community property and subject to being divided in the divorce. The division can happen in a number of ways. The home could be sold and the proceeds of the sale split between you and your wife, or one of you could buy the other person out and refinance the home, taking the other person off the loan. If you purchased the home before the marriage, it is your separate property and not subject to division in a divorce.

That is untrue.  Typically, when parties file for divorce, they either agree or the court enters temporary orders detailing which party gets exclusive temporary use and possession of real estate, motor vehicles, and potentially other property and which recurring bills each party is ordered to pay during the pendency of the case.  Such temporary orders may also include temporary support for a spouse or any children of the marriage, interim attorney fees if one party in in control of most of the community funds, and a parenting plan for custody & possession of any children.It is not automatic that each spouse must pay 1/2 of all bills.
