How do I get the vehicle VIN number on the divorce papers?

Answered by attorney Cheryl Alsandor
Divorce lawyer at The Alsandor Law Firm, P.L.L.C.
You can ask your ex spouse to actually sign the title over to you by following the instructions on the back of the title, and signing the title to you. Alternatively, you can ask your spouse to sign a power of attorney to transfer tthe motor vehicle to you. Another alternative, is that your a lawyer will have to file a suit to clarify the divorce decree. In the order from that lawsuit, the VIN can be entered and you can provide a copy of that order to the county clerks office to transfer the vehicle.

Can I get spousal support what are rights

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
A typical divorce attorney charges anywhere between $300-600 per hour depending upon the lawyer's level of experience, location, and current workload.Many divorce attorneys offer an initial consultation for a flat fee.  A few may offer free consultations, but my advice is to steer clear of those.  I personally offer a 90-minute initial consultation for a low flat fee of $500.  This is fairly representative of what to expect in the North Texas area.The amount of your initial retainer depends on the complexity of your marital estate, whether there are minor children, the county where you live, and how aggressively you anticipate your husband will be in any divorce proceeding.  For a relatively simple divorce without children involving a straightforward marital estate, I routinely request an initial retainer of $5,000.  If the parties are in relative agreement and disagreements do not arise regarding issues the spouses haven't thought of before filing and the spouses put in the legwork instead of requiring a paralegal or attorney to hunt down information from third party sources, we can occasionally complete a divorce for that sum of money depending on the court the case is assigned to.  This is not typical, however.Ordinarily, funds from the community estate will be used to pay for each party's attorney.  If one spouse does not have access to those funds, the court can order interim attorney fees to be paid from any account that is part of the parties' marital estate.

What will I be entitled to in a divorce if we have a prenup?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
With matters this important, I think you urgently need to hire a skilled family lawyer to represent you. To be enforced by a divorce court, a prenup must have been fair when it was first made, and fair when it is sought to be enforced. There is a lot of room for a lawyer to work with based on these issues. If the prenup were denied enforcement, then everything is up for grabs, and you would be presumptively entitled to half the total property. Of course, the estranged husband may have played games with transferring title and other things, so quite thorough investigation is needed.
