While I'm unemployed my wife has asked for a divorce. What are my chances of getting at least some temporary income support from her?

If she is working and you are not, you will have a good change of getting temporary maintenance. You have to ask for a temporary maintenance hearing at the initial status conference. You can ask as part of temporary maintenance for money to pay for an attorney for you, as the courts want the parties to be on an equal footing (i.e., make it a fair fight). If the two of you make less than $76,000 per year, there is a presumptive formula the court uses to come up with a temporary maintenance amount, otherwise it is based on what you need to meet your reasonable needs.  The court actually can order her to pay all of your attorney fees at the end of the case. You definitely should speak with an attorney, especially if she has one, as it's harder for men to get maintenance because of reverse sexism, but it's definitely doable. Hope this helps. You can reach Dave Rich at (303) 886-2516 or dave@flatironlegal.com. Dave Rich is an attorney licensed in Colorado. Responding to your questions does not create an attorney-client relationship between us. You should speak with an attorney to whom you have provided all the facts in your case, before you take steps that may impact your legal rights. I am not obligated to answer subsequent emails or phone calls unless you have hired me. I wish you the best of luck with your situation.

Do i have to keep health ins. on my wife if we divorce

Once you file for divorce, a temporary injunction goes into place that, among other things, bars either party from changing or stopping paying on health insurance policies without notice and consent from the other party or a court order. Once you are divorced, you would not need to maintain (if possible) or pay for insurance on the other party unless you agreed or were ordered to do so in the separation agreement. I often take cases like this on a reasonable flat fee basis, either as one party's attorney or a mediator) if you would like to discuss it further. In other words, you at least could ask the court for an order that let's you stop paying the insurance since she makes more than you. I hope this helps.  You can reach Dave Rich at (303) 886-2516 or dave@flatironlegal.com. Dave Rich is an attorney licensed in Colorado.

If the wife is not willing to sign the divorce papers what do you do to end it quickly?

In Colorado and most states you do not need your wife's signature on anything. All that is required is that you have the paper work personally served on her to ensure that she know about the legal proceedings. Once she has been served, it is her responsibility to protect her own interests and if she fails to do so, you will get whatever you ask the court to do.
