Can I sell my car before a divorce?

Answered by attorney Randy Lee Warren (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Warren Law Group PC
You can sell any community property and split that amount but if your spouse proves you sold for less than fair market value you you could be ordered to pay half of that fair market value. This presumes, first, that the car is community property.

With a legal separation the parties are still "legally" married. If they wish to have the legal separation judgment vacated, a request for orders should be filed with the court to to so. You might need a lawyer in your community to help you with this.
