Who owns a home if the ex wife died before refinancing?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael V. Fancher (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Seattle Divorce Services
Under Washington law, if he signed a quit claim, then it would appear he no longer has any ownership interest. He may want to consult with a probate attorney as to what is likely to happen with regard to the mortgage and her estate. It may well be that whoever inherits the house will need to take over the mortgage in order to avoid foreclosure.

If I file for divorce because of my husbands drug use, will I be entitled to anything if he proves I had the opportunity to commit adultery?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Daniela Kristabell McCalla (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Groth, Makarenko, Kaiser Eidex, LLC
Generally, a spouse isn't entitled to alimony if it's established through presentation of evidence that the separation is due to the spouse's adultery. The bar to receiving alimony only applies if it is shown that the act of adultery was the direct cause of the separation between the two parties. A person commits adultery when he or she has sexual intercourse with a person other than his or her spouse. In your question you said that you had an opportunity to commit adultery.  The next question is whether you actually committed the act.  And if that act was committed, did that act cause the separation? Keep in mind that when determining whether to award alimony, the court will consider the conduct of both parties.

My daughter is 18.5 and is having baby do I still have to pay child support?

It all depends on what your divorce decree says. Standard provisions in Texas say you have to pay to the later of age 18 or high school graduation, provided the child stays in school.
