Is what I have a default divorce document?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Willie Stephen Graves (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Graves Law Firm
It is not a default divorce or the beginning of it. It's an order telling him he has to have you served with the divorce petition by the deadline specified in the order or the case will be dismissed. If you want a divorce, you should file an answer to the divorce petition and ask for a hearing, then SHOW UP for the hearing and tell the judge you think you're entitled to a share of retirement benefits earned during the marriage. You're right that you are entitled to your portion of anything accumulated during the marriage, including retirement benefits. If you're keeping the kids, you're also entitled to child support in accordance with guidelines, and without legal advice you have no way of knowing whether you're entitled to more (or less) than you've agreed to. You really need a lawyer. Have you tried calling legal aid or asked a lawyer about a time payment program or trying to get the judge to order your spouse to help pay your lawyer fees? Good luck.

Can I file for divorce but not appear in court?

Answered by attorney Lucio Antonio Montes (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Montes Law Firm
Yes, but if you are in a different country, there are some technicalities that must be met with the waiver. You or your husband should consult a local divorce attorney for further advice. Good luck.

Is it possible to remove sponsorship if we divorce?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Immigration sponsorship is a fairly complicated process, so I will give you some general advice, but I must preface it with a strong suggestion that you seek a consultation with an immigration attorney as soon as possible. It is unclear where you are in the sponsorship process;however, if you have already filed the Form I-864, you're legally responsible to support your wife in the eyes of the U.S. government, and the dissolution of your marriage does not extinguish this responsibility.
