Can I remarry in Florida after my divorce in Texas is final or must I wait 30 days?

Robert Jensen 'Bob' Matlock
Answered by attorney Robert Jensen 'Bob' Matlock (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Mackoy, Hernandez, Jones and Woods LLP
The Texas law requires a period of 30 days. You may check Florida law to see if it is different. I suggest you hire a lawyer.

Could a divorce be final without a denial of paternity signed

Renea Overstreet
Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
The final decree will either name him as the father or some other man as the father. His signature may not be necessary depending on the circumstances and the Court. Was DNA testing done? What county are you in?

Am I eligible to receive any of my husband’s teachers retirement?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
A portion of your husband's retirement is likely community property. The community property acquired during your 7 years of marriage belongs 50% to you and 50% to him. So, yes you are entitled to some percentage of his teacher's retirement. As far as who pays for the cost of the divorce, it is possible that your husband can be ordered to pay your attorney's fees, although most attorneys require an initial retainer to take you on as a client.
