I was served divorce papers, which states that I have 20 days to respond. Is it 20 calendar days or business days?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Loren Paul Zahn (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Zahn Law Office
It is calendar days, not business days, although it is usually 30 days, not 20. You are not required to have an attorney at any stage of the proceedings, but attorneys can be helpful at all stages of the case.

Am I entitled to my husband 401k after divorce and how soon will be able to collect? What will I need to access my share?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Barbara Peyton (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
If your husband's 401k was acquired during marriage due to employment, you are entitled to one-half of it. The court will sign a document entitled qualified domestic relations order (QDRO) to divide the asset. the 401k holder will then divide the account and put half in your name. Be careful, though. Cashing out part of a 401k triggers a taxable event. Good luck

Is the opinion of the child ever taken into consideration in a divorce? How?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Barbara Peyton (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
There is no specific age and the courts look skeptically when a child states a preference for one parent over the other. Most children want at least some contact with both parents. The best way to handle this kind of issue is get both parties and the child to a child counseling mediator.
