What forms do I need and what exactly should I do about the 401k and savings plan I was awarded in my divorce?

You need a qualified domestic relations order for each plan covered by the federal statutes. The plan administrator may have a form order that can be tracked. This is very detailed work - it would be a good idea to hire a lawyer.

What will now happen on the home equity loan?

Answered by attorney Terry Anne Buchanan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Terry A. Buchanan
In California, a debt incurred after date of marriage is a community property obligation. That principal would be strong in your case as the funds from the loan went to purchase a vehicle for husband #2 after your marriage to husband #2.? An important fact would be the terms of your divorce judgment with husband #1 - husband #1 appears to be 50% liable for the first deed of trust (mortgage) and husband #2 would be?50% liable for the equity line. Husband #2's liability may well be 100% if he is awarded the truck that the equity funds were used to purchase.

Does Common Law Marriage really exist in Houston, Texas?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Willie Stephen Graves (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Graves Law Firm
Yes, really. The three elements are agreement that you are married, cohabitation and holding yourselves out in the community as married. The fact that there are no documents or writings proving any of these elements does not prevent a court from finding a common law marriage if there are other kinds of evidence. Even oral testimony alone is enough if the judge (or jury) believes it.
