Does all paperwork have to be corrected if it shows my maiden middle name instead of middle used when married?

This a good question. It appears as though you are the Respondent in the divorce. You may have filed an Original Answer or simply signed a waiver of service to let the court know you were notified of the divorce proceedings. However, it is important to note that your responsibility doesn't end there. Your divorce decree must specifically state that you are seeking to restore the use of your maiden name. Otherwise, you will have to go through the judicial name change process after the divorce has become final. Your best bet is to schedule a consultation with a local divorce lawyer to review the documents your ex wants you to sign.

Yes, under most circumstances, you will be entitled to an interest in the home. It does not matter if you have children.

If you signed a Marital Settlement Agreement, then you may be out of luck. If he took a default Judgment against you, without your signature on an agreement, then you can perhaps file a motion to set aside the Judgment on grounds of fraud. You need to speak with an attorney about this, as your case sounds like it will be complicated and you will need the help.
