What happens to the husband in a divorce?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrea Winters Morelos (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Morelos Law Firm
Not sure what you mean by phrasing your question as "what happens to the HUSBAND" in a divorce. Whether you are the husband or the wife, the grounds for divorce are simply 1 year of separation (which sounds like you don't have yet) and 6 months residency of at least one party. Regarding any rights to alimony, from the VERY limited facts you have listed, it sounds like she MAY have some interest to that but that is not something you would file for but rather that she might file for and you would need to defend. Finally, about the house, you say that "you" bought it. Unfortunately, if it was purchased during the marriage, regardless of who's paycheck or monies may have gone towards it, even if only you are on the deed, and/or even if only you are on the mortgage, she would have some marital interests in that property. Not necessarily 50/50 especially if she is NOT on the deed, but some interests. You should consult with a local family law attorney right away to discuss your rights AND potential obligations incident to the separation. Which by the way you do NOT have to wait whole year to address (only the actual divorce itself requires the one year wait).

Will a judge sign-off on the decree if it only states she gets the car and I get the house and truck?

Peter David Ticktin
Answered by attorney Peter David Ticktin (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Ticktin Law Group
I'm sorry, though I have done some cases in Texas, I am not licensed there and do not know the law in Texas. In Florida, the Court would be inclined to divide the property as you both agreed. The Courts are more inclined to get involved, in spite of agreements, if there are children involved. If I were you, I would go forward with your action in Texas and see what the judge does. Usually, the judges have more than enough work to do without looking to make unnecessary work for themselves.
