Do you deal with separation cases?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
There really is no legal form of separation in New Jersey.  Mostly what happens is that a couple will separate in anticipation of divorce, and will need to sort out their rights prior to the divorce being finalized, like temporary support, or housing.  Any attorney that deals in family law will be able to help you with this.  If you are in Ocean or Monmouth counties, call my office and we can help you.

I was married and we owned a house, we got a divorce, my husband brought me out, but he never got another mortgage or took my name off the deed,

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
It is my understanding that when you get divorced, its as if your spouse died before you.  However, if you bought the house together as husband and wife, and were legally married at the time of purchase, then the house is probably owned as joint tenants with right of survivorship.  That means that you may be entitled to the property upon his death, but if it is in foreclosure, I don't know if there is any equity.  If the house is currently in foreclosure, you would have to receive a copy of the complaint as the record owner, and will have the chance to file an answer to the complaint to find out more information.

I live in NJ. My husband purchased the house less then 1 month before we got married. Is this considered marital property and will it be divided

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You may be entitled to a portion of the increase in value of the house form the time of purchase to the time of divorce.  If you are paying towards the utility bills (gas, water electric) you may not have any recourse. But if you are contributing to the mortgage, you may be able to claim entitlement to a portion of the equity in the house.  The more important issue is the way you are both dealing with money - it is the number 1 reason couples fight - see a counselor before things get too far out of control !
