Can I get married in the United States if I am already married in my country?

Answered by attorney Christine A Cady (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Christine A. Cady Attorney at Law
No. If for some reason it were found out that you had previously been married in the Philippines, your marriage here would be considered fraudulent and void. It would be as if it had never existed. Plus there would be the potential criminal charges for polygamy or marrying more than one person.

Can my ex wife receive compensation for community assets?

Rebecca A Rainwater
Answered by attorney Rebecca A Rainwater (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Landon Rainwater Robinson LLP
Community payments to improve or maintain separate property. If a spouse brings a separate property house into a marriage, and then uses his or her monthly salary to pay the mortgage, the courts will determine that part of the house has become community property. The percentage of the community interest will depend on the number of mortgage payments, and how much the value of the house changed during that period. Likewise, using community assets to pay property taxes, insurance, and repairs can also give the community a claim to part of the house.

In Arizona there is a self-service center with forms to assist those representing themselves. If she has been properly served with the papers, either signed an acceptance of service, or through a process server, and has not responded, the you should file and mail to her an Affidavit and Application for Default. You should then receive instructions, or find those instructions in your instructions, that tell you how to schedule a Default Dissolution hearing. You should consider at least consulting with an experienced family law attorney in your area to discuss this matter and the appropriate procedures.
