Ask the court to put in the divorce decree that he has no interest in the house and that, if he refuses to quit claim the property to you, that you can record a short form of the decree as proof he has no interest in the property.

If purchased property prior to divorce summons common property?

Renea Overstreet
Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
In Texas, all property is considered community property if it was acquired during the marriage unless it was acquired by gift, devise (granted through a Will) or descent (inherited without a Will). Thus, if the property is purchased while the couple is still married, it will be considered commuinty property even if the couple is separated. However, either party can request that any property be awarded 100% to the party in a divorce proceeding. Also, couples who have been separated for a long time often come to an agreement on how property will be divided. If there is no agreement, the court has a duty to make a just and right division of all community property. When couples are separated for a long time, it is possible to make an argument as to why getting 100% of certain property is just and right. However, it is up to the court to make the ultimate decision on property division if the parties cannot come to an agreement.

My husband and I are both military and are stationed in Korea. I want a divorce ASAP and I’m pretty sure he is on board as well. What do I need to do?

Because you are both deployed and active duty, its virtually complicated to get a divorce easily because you share benefits. You will need to be able to be off duty and back in your state or any county you chose to live in and qualify under the jursidiction residency requirement. Since there is a child involved, custody arrangement is also needed to be discussed. If you can discuss with your spouse matters such as millitary benefits and child custody issues, you can than proceed to an uncontested divorce. An uncontested divorce will cost you anywhere from $750 to $1,500 compared to a contested divorce with military background will run you anywhere from $2,500 to $5,000. Feel free to contact my office and speak with a case manager at 877-866-8665 or email help@smsattorneys.com.
