I want to get married Again but I cannot find my divorce papers what should I do And my time is running out

You don't need a divorce certificate to get married - but if you decide you want one you should go to the county clerk's office in the county in which you got divorced - and you can get one on the spot.

Will I have to give my husband half of everything I have in a divorce.

Lori Nevias
Answered by attorney Lori Nevias
Divorce lawyer at Lori Nevias, Attorney at Law
Your husband will probably be entitled to little or no share of your house or the joint bank account in your divorce.Since you bought the house before you married, it is not a marital asset. Therefore, he has no claim on it in a divorce, unless he put a very large amount of money into the property, in which case he might claim he has a constructive trust in it.As far as the joint account, if you had already filed for divorce you would've had no right to remove your husband's name, regardless of the fact that only you contribute to it. Your timing was excellent in removing his name now. Although you haven't mentioned it, if you have a job with a pension and your husband (as I suspect) does not, it's very important that you file for divorce as soon as possible to stop his share of your pension from continuing to accrue, keeping in mind that if he does have a pension, the same applies to you. The same applies to spousal support, which is calculated on the length of the marriage, up to the date you file for divorce. The additional caveat to filing as soon as possible is that if his income is significantly lower than yours, you can expect that he will file a motion for pendente lite relief, meaning a court order for spousal support and attorney fees from you, shortly after you file for divorce. Alimony is calculated according to a state mandated formula producing a range for an amount and length of time for spousa support to be paid, based on your joint incomes and length of the marriage. A skilled divorce attorney can often defeat or greatly reduce an award in that situation, depending on the particular case.

Can I file for divorce while living in NC

Stephanie Elizabeth Emanuel
Answered by attorney Stephanie Elizabeth Emanuel (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Stephanie E. Emanuel, Esq.
Greetings, You may be eligible to file for DIVORCE in the State of North Carolina if North Carolina has jurisdiction. So what you will need to do first is to determine three things. 1. Determine Child Custody/Asset issue if there is anything involved, and even Alimony, if you would like to receive it and or if you are eligible for it. You can go over these details with an attorney of your choice. 2. You need to determine whether this will be a Contested Divorce or Uncontested. Contested Divorce is where you guys don't agree to divorce and or don't agree on the terms and conditions of Custody/Alimony/Child Support/etc. The more flexible you both are the simpler the case process will be and the cheaper it will come out. Uncontested Divorce is $2,500 and $4,500+ for Contested Divorce. 3. Determine your budget and the attorney you would like to work with. I am licensed in New York and New Jersey. Specialize in Family Law. We do offer payment plans with 50% down. If you would like to discuss your case in more details and go over your options, feel free to call my office and speak with a Case Manager. My number is 877-866-8665
