How do I get a divorce when my husband's in the military?

Gary A. Russell
Answered by attorney Gary A. Russell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Clos, Russell & Wirth, P.C.
If the children are not his biological children and he has not adopted them, then he has no legal obligation to support them. If you want child support, I suggest you go after the biological father. As for spousal support, you can request it from the court, but it is not something you are "entitled to", but rather it is at the discretion of the court. Many factors are considered when determining whether or not to grant spousal support, for how long and how much. The only factors you have identified are: length of marriage (which is very short) and income, for which you say you have none of your own. An attorney would need to know the information needed for the other factors to be able to advise you of the likelihood of receiving support. Finally, if your husband is deployed, then the divorce action will most likely be delayed until he can receive leave and return to the states. The is federal law protecting deployed soldiers and sailors. Of course, since children are not issue, it could be resolved even while he is deployed.

The engagement ring is a marital asset subject to equitable distribution in the divorce. You should consult with an attorney regarding any other potential issues, as well as your rights and options under Florida law.

What do I do to file divorce if we have not filed taxes in 5 plus years?

Answered by attorney Jessica M Cotter (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Firm of Jessica M. Cotter, P.L.L.C.
I can not answer the tax issues because I am not a Tax attorney. I recommend contacting a tax attorney or a CPA. You can still get a divorce.
