Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question and I’m sorry to hear that you’re in this position.  It is a little difficult to completely answer your question without asking some additional questions. Are you currently going through a divorce or are you already divorced? Have you asked the other party for proof of these accounts? Has the other party blatantly advised that they do not have these accounts or did they refuse to disclose this information? You are correct in stating that all financial information and documentation needs to be fully disclosed in a divorce. You are also correct in stating that one spouse is entitled to a portion of the “marital coverture” of the other parties’ retirement account. The marital coverture is the period of time from the date of marriage through the date the Complaint for Divorce was filed (unless another cut-off date has been established). Any retirement accounts that were earned prior to marriage are considered pre-marital and may not be subject to equitable distribution. The party who has the account should provide statements of the account from the date of marriage through the date of Complaint and also as of today’s date. In the event you are divorced and later found out that your spouse was hiding these assets from you, depending on what your Marital Settlement Agreement reads, you may be entitled to these accounts once discovered. You may also be entitled to attorney’s fees for needing to file a Motion with the Court in order to have this enforced – so long as you have this language in your Agreement as well. There are some additional questions that may need to be answered and will definitely be helpful in your situation. To help you understand your rights and options, I strongly urge you to schedule an attorney consultation.

My husband and his attorney are refusing to participate in a settlement conference, is trial the only option left?

Cathy Rose Cook
Answered by attorney Cathy Rose Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cathy R. Cook, Attorney at Law
If the court ordered a settlement conference, they are required to participate. The case should still be set for trial, in case the conference is not successful.

Refinancing in only my name? Will this cause any issues down the road in a divorce settlement?

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question. Whether the mortgage is in one name or both on marital property does not make it only one person’s liability. Even if only one name is on the mortgage, both parties would still be liable for the debt if it is marital debt. By having only the mortgage in your name, would make it easier for you to buy him out in the event of a divorce, since you would not need to refinance again. If the mortgage is in both names, a refinance would need to occur for a buyout. To help you understand your rights and options, I strongly urge you to schedule an attorney consultation.
