Can I get spousal support even if I'm married to my husband for only four years?

Answered by attorney Barbara Peyton (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
Spousal support has two components: temporary and permanent. You will probably not receive it on a permanent basis but, depending on both of your incomes, you could receive temporary spousal support. That support is based on how much income each of you have each month and a consideration of certain of your expenses and tax deductions. I strongly recommend you have at least one consultation with a family law attorney in person to get a better idea of your rights and duties in the divorce. Please do not sign anything until you have talked to an attorney in person.

Can I move out of state with my child during a divorce with soon-to-be ex-husband's consent (notarized)?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)

Legally, yes. To protect against future allegations, the written consent should be filed in the court file. Due to Colorado's strict requirements that either you or your husband be a legal, domiciliary resident of Colorado for at least 90 days before filing the petition and the complexities of trying to handle your case from CA without an attorney, you should consult a CO attorney and not try to continue the case without an attorney.

Now that our marriage is over, who gets to keep the house?

When you say "over," do you mean you are ready to get divorced or you are divorced? If you are divorced, then the decree should already have addressed that issue. If you are getting ready to file, it seems to me that the house is community property since your parents apparently gave the house to both of you, not just you. So you each get of the value of the house. Of course, there are a lot of other factors that need to be considered and you should talk with your attorney about them all.
