I am a retired Navy veteran. My current spouse cheated on me. I can prove it. Is she entitled to my retirement benefits? Married for 22 years.

Bradley Roger Gammell
Answered by attorney Bradley Roger Gammell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Gammell & Associates
Short answer:  Probably, yes.   Whatever retirement was earned by either party during the marriage is subject to division by the judge at divorce.   This means that the retirement you earned prior to the marriage is your separate property and the retirement earned during the marriage is community property.  Also, any retirement your spouse earned during the marriage is also subject to division as community property.  Generally speaking, if you were married for 10 years while you were on active duty, she would be awarded 25% of your disposable retired pay.   If you have waived part of your retired pay (for example to receive VA disability pay), she would not be entitled to a share of the VA disability.  Fault in the breakup of the marriage is one basis by which the court can award a disproportionate share of the community property to the wronged party.

In the first stages of filing for an absolute divorce what are the chances of me receiving full custody/support and alimony?

Answered by attorney Pamela R. Lawson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Pamela R. Lawson
As you probably know, Nevada is a "no fault" divorce state. The court is not interested, no mater how sorted [as long as your children weren't present] the affair was. Nevada also, by law, has a presumption that joint physical custody is in the best interests of the child. In order to defeat the presumption you must show that he is unfit - i.e. uses drugs, has been convicted of child or spousal abuse, or something else that is on the same seriousness level. Adultery is not enough or, in today's society, relevant to child custody. Child support is determined by statute if you have sole or primary custody, i.e. 18% of his gross monthly income for one child. If you have joint physical custody, the support is calculated by figuring out the support obligation of each parent if that parent did not have custody, the numbers are subtracted, the balance is what the parent making less money gets from the parent making more money as child support. Six years is not considered a "long term " marriage, at best, and considering his income, you could expect would be a short period of spousal support in the nature of "rehabilitative support" designed to permit you to go to school or undertake some type of education to improve your job skills so that you can support yourself. I strongly believe you do need an attorney unless you and your husband can agree to the resolution of custody, spousal support and distribution of your assets and debts.

Is it up to me to find my ex or do I have to hire an attorney?

Answered by attorney Brent R. Chipman

You do not need an attorney to locate your ex husband. You can check with mutual friends or family members. You may be able to locate him through social media. You can also hire a private investigator.
