Can a husband force the wife out of the house if she is not on the deed but it was quick deeded to her?

Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Eugene Lumberg and Eric S. Lumberg
Without a court order, neither party will be forced to move out. Further, both spouses can claim an interest to the house regardless of the name on the deed or mortgage. Consult with an attorney to discuss these issues in further detail.

How can I keep my health coverage if my husband wants divorce?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)

Apparently you are referring to health insurance provided by your husband's employer and the answer is probably that after divorce you are no longer eligible for coverage under that plan, except for a brief period as provided under the COBRA law. Even under COBRA, however, you or your husband will have to pay the full cost because the employer will no longer subsidize the plan. If, instead of a divorce, you only have the court enter a decree of legal separation, you will remain legally married and, therefore, still eligible for coverage under the current health insurance plan. Your separation agreement is not binding on the employer and isn't really binding on anyone until it is approved by a court.
