Husband unfaithfull, want a divorce but scared, where do I start?

Asked by a user in Tucson, AZ - about 1 month ago.

You need to visit the local superior court and get the initial divorce packet. I would try to get a free consultation with a family law attorney who can assist you in filling out the documents. I think you could legitimately ask for spousal maintenance in the short term to get you back on your feet. As far as the house is concerned, there has been some movement in a positive direction in the housing market, but I think that Tucson is still lagging behind Phoenix. I would contact a local real...

Can Father file with the courts to reduce child support if he is not working

Asked by a user in Phoenix, AZ - 7 months ago.

Looks like he may have a problem with his modification. You definitely want an attorney to assist you with this.

An attorney in this case would argue that quitting was a voluntary and unecessary act, especially in light of the depression that we are mired in.

Woman claims I m father of her 4yr old son. she is married & he is on the birth certificate. How can I find out if I am father?

Asked by a user in Bullhead City, AZ - 3 months ago.

It is her obligation to go forward with the claim if she wants to get child support from you. Absent her attempt to move forward, the husband is the presumptive father. Potentially, you could be on the hook for three years of back child support. If you believe you are the father, I strongly suggest that you consult with a child custody attorney.

I have Primary Custody of my daughter, can my ex husband not return her home after visiting?

Asked by a user in Tucson, AZ - 8 months ago.

If he has threatened to do this, then you may want to warn him that you will hire counsel and seek all available remedies. It is nice though for a kid to get out of the heat. Try to work it out first.

I filed for my divorce today.

Asked by a user in Scottsdale, AZ - 8 months ago.

As long as you stipulate to the new date, I don't see the problem. If there is significant property at stake, you want to make sure that this issue is resolved early on. You should at least consult with a lawyer.

When it comes to parental alienation what do the courts see as admissable evidence or proof?

Asked by a user in Phoenix, AZ - 8 months ago.

Parental Alienation Syndrome is typically proven through some sort of custody study, parenting conference, or counseling records. I strongly recommend you get the advice of an experienced child custody attorney before the child is harmed further. You need to act as quickly as possible.
