Am I required to give her anything on my settlement, and if so do I have to agree on a percentage now? What’s a good low percentage, if so?

Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
Generally speaking, any portion of your settlement that is for lost wages or property damage is considered "community" and should be equitably divided in your divorce (this usually means equally). Any portion of your settlement that is for pain and suffering is considered "separate" and should not be divided in your divorce.

Incomplete divorce

Gina M. Famularo
Answered by attorney Gina M. Famularo
Divorce lawyer at Family Law Matters
If your wife failed to follow through with the divorce, you can petition the court for a judgment that dates back to the time the judgment should have been entered. That is assuming the original case has not been dismissed. If no custody or support orders were made, your case would have been dismissed many years ago, and you will have to start all over to obtain a divorce.

Do I need a copy of the divorce decree to re-marry (will re-marry as soon as possible)?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
You don't need the marriage certificate to get a divorce. I suppose you could file for divorce, but you will have to have her served in China. Have you contacted the court in China to see if you can get an official copy of the decree? Normally, you would not need that to get married either but if you aren't really divorced, you need to know that.
