If my wife lives in one state and I live in another state and we were married in a different state, how would we be able to get a divorce?

Answered by attorney Brent R. Chipman
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Brent R. Chipman
If there are children involved, the divorce action should be filed where the children reside. If there are no minor children, either party can file for a divorce in a state where they meet the residency requirements, or they can file in the state where the spouse meets residency requirements. If you cannot agree on where the divorce should be filed, the court would consider whether either spouse has lived in the other state during the marriage, or where the acts giving rise to the divorce took place.

Do I keep my house I purchased before the marriage?

Answered by attorney Anne Barbara Howard (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Anne B. Howard, A Professional Law Corporation
That's your separate property home but the community may have an interest in it as you've been making principal payments during the marriage. There are cases that handle this and you should consult with an attorney. Opinion not legal advice.

Can DES do a DNA test without my knowledge or consent?

Answered by attorney William R. Pelger
Divorce lawyer at Pelger Law
That's a complicated situation. You would have to file support enforcement proceedings against someone you have now remarried and share a home with? You really need to go to the Family Division, see a counselor and look at the file to learn what is actually going on. Or, hire a lawyer to do it for you. As far as the testing, the Family Division can do mouth swabs on a reputed father if paternity is an issue, but the story sounds suspicious to me. Normally, DNA testing is difficult to get retroactively, is generally done only by court order, and is usually initiated by one of the parties, not the Family Division.
