Unemployment and temporary spousal support

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
 There are several issues presented by your question.      1. If you file an application for temporary modification of your support setting, when will the family part judge hear the application? The answer depends on which county the application is being made in since some counties are up and running and others are still having difficulty getting staff in to handle the volume of matters.   2. Under the statute governing modification of support claims based on "change in circumstance" settings, your former husband would be prohibited from filing that application  for 90 days from his termination -  so, whether the court may impose the same 90 day hold on your support modification application for 90 days from your termination of employment.  3. Filing an application for modification of support is not simple and too many people make mistakes when they file it and as a result, the court denies the application and then it may be too late to try and correct it by hiring a lawyer to refile the same or a similar  application. There are specific procedural requirements to the filing of that application and if they are not done right, the court can easily deny the application, placing you in a worse setting.  4. It may make sense for you to reach out to your former husband and ask him if you and he can work out a temporary arrangement to help you get through this setting without the need of an application to the court. He may want to avoid the courts intervention as well and may be willing to work out some temporary modification so as to avoid the court making the decision. If not, you may ask him to agree to the use of a family law attorney as a mediator to assist you and him in trying to find an interim solution, with both of you paying the lawyer to handle the issue and if an agreement is reached through his assistance, he can then prepare a consent order for modification. There are a lot of family law attorneys currently working with families today handling this exact issue through videoconferencing or by telephone.

Could I continue without a lawyer ?

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
Despite the fact that the lawyer passed away, there should have been another lawyer appointed to take over the handling of his outstanding client matters. If you call his office or email him, you should get some type of notification, telling you the name of the lawyer who has taken over the handling of your matter. If you do not get that information or a response, you should contact the Office of Attorney Ethics, whose main office telephone number is 609-403-7800. The department will guide you to whomever has taken over that lawyers client matters and / or assist you in getting back some of your retainer monies. As for moving forward with your divorce, you can also contact the family part section of the courthouse to find out the name and telphone number of the judge handling your divorce. You can then reach out to chambers to let them know that your lawyer has passed away and that you wish to proceed pro se. Someone should be able to assist you in filing the substitution of counsel form so that you can take over your own representation. As it stands now, all notifications are being sent to your lawyers attention ( since he is listed as counsel of record in your matter).
