How to divorce

Renea Overstreet
Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at Overstreet Law Firm
If your wife hasn't exposed your son to anything inappropriate, the issues of managing conservatorship, child support and possession and access will be determined by the evidence and the law. The court would determine what is in the best interest of the child, not based on the mom's participation in consentual adult activity, but on how you two have parented the child. Who gets the child up in the mornings? Who feeds the child? Who takes the child shopping for new clothes? Who take the child to the doctor and dentist? Who meets with the teachers? Etc. If you both provide equal parenting, some courts will consider a 50/50 possession schedule. You have to be careful when you approach the court with accusations against your spouse. Shaming the other parent because of their consensual adult activity doesn't always get you what you want. It's just one of many factors the court MIGHT consider in determining what's best for the child. The focus should be on the child and on how the two of you have been parents for the child's whole life.

Can I still get spousal support if I left my husband?

Alimony is based on criteria that have nothing to do with who left who. If you meet the other criteria, you being the party who left the family residence would have no bearing.

If I dismissed my divorce case under pressure from my husband, can I file it again?

Answered by attorney Karen A. Clark (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Karen A. Clark
You can file a Petition for dissolution at any time. If you dismissed the Petition before, I would suggest that you consult with an attorney. Usually a party cannot exert the same type of pressure that s/he did on a spouse. Additionally, if there is an issue of your spouse escalating, you should discuss that with an attorney so you two might formulate a plan for your protection.
