Can I file fore divorce if my wife who has already filed for divorce fail to request for the hearing?

Answered by attorney John F. Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Generally you will have to go forward with the case which is already filed and answered. Is your now party to which you can motion up for the hearing. Obviously not understand the procedure and therefore should at least buy an hour or two of an attorney's time and get an outline as to what you must do.

Am I entitled to the IRA money during a divorce if it was opened prior to the marriage?

Answered by attorney Jessica M Cotter (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Firm of Jessica M. Cotter, P.L.L.C.
Property owned prior to a marriage, to which no contribution was made, and no change in the names on the property occurred during the marriage should be classified as separate property, not subject to division in a dissolution. You should consult with an experienced family law attorney to discuss your rights in community property, and how to verify that property is separate property.

If I am paying all the bills, she has a car I pay for, can she demand the house if she left for another man?

Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Robert E. McCall
Of Course she can. BUT it is up to the Judge to make than decision. in Florida anyone can ask for anything and some people are so whipped they give in immediately. Do not be afraid for the Judge to make decisions, that's what they get $155,000.00 a year to do.
