Marlton Family Law Attorney.
Technically, your ex-wife has no duty to support the children (unless she adopts them). Therefore, her earnings or income would not necessarily be relevant. The larger question, really, is why does your ex-wife have custody of your daughter's kids. Sounds like you may want to re-visit some of these issues. Please feel free to contact me, or have your daughter and son-in-law call me. Mark S. Guralnick, Esq. 1-800-LAWYERS 1-866-337-2900

Sounds like his wife was granted "letters of administration" by the Register of Wills -- which means she was given the authority to sell your dad's property and deal with his estate. If she is truly under investigation, then I believe there is a conflict of interest. You should promptly file a Petition to Revoke Letters of Administration. If may also be necessary to file a Motion to Remove the administrator in the Orphan's Court division of the Court system. Please feel free to contact us...

Well, you certainly present a persuasive argument! Often, a disabling disease that fractures your ability to be self-supporting can represent a significant change in circumstances. The other financial issues you mentioned can also manifest a significant change independently, if not collectively. In the end, it all comes down to how we prepare the motion to modify alimony, and how we cultivate the evidence you have to make a convincing argument to the judge. Under the prevailing case law,...

You may be able to avoid, or at least limit, alimony, but you will need to get down to business to establish the necessary evidence as early as possible. Alimony is based on the duration of the marriage, the disparity in your income and many other factors. As for property division, you will be subject to an "equitable distribution" of your assets, but you may have the right to protect certain assets. If you can prove a special equity in the assets, or misconduct by your wife, you may be able to...

Sounds like another spiteful guy wasting time in the Philadelphia court system. The Court will consider his Petition to Modify Custody if he can show a change in circumstances, and if he can show that it will be in your daughter's best interests. You should retain a lawyer to fight this. I have handled many custody cases at 34 S. 11th St. in Philadelphia as well as the surrounding counties. I'd be happy to help you. Feel free to call (no charge). If you feel this post was helpful, please...

Yes, you have rights. An interested party has the right to petition the court for custody in the child's best interest. And, if the child's sibling is with you, your rights are even greater. But, if the child has already been returned to the father -- or a court order has already been issued -- this may alter your position. I would have to see the order and any other supporting papers on the situation. Please call if we can help. If you felt this post was helpful, please click on thumbs up (...

You probably won't have criminal charges, but it is against state law to move with a child unless you get a court order first or unless the father consents to your relocation. If you end up in a court dispute over this issue, you will need to prove 12 things to convince the judge that you should move with the child to another state. Call me if we can help.

I agree with Attorney Robinson's response. You should check first with the JAG office and the Commanding Officer. If you need to retain a private lawyer, we'd be happy to help you. We're quite familiar with military divorces. I hope this helps. If you felt this post was helpful, please click the thumbs up (helpful) tab. Thanks. Mark S.

Be sure to register whatever custody order you get in each state where the child may be visiting with one parent or another. Under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act, once you register that order, you can enforce it from state to state. Good luck.

Unfortunately, there is a privilege to say things -- even defamatory things -- in a courtroom. Historically, this was an absolute privilege (no exceptions to the rule). In some circumstances, it can be a limited or qualified privilege. But candidly, you will not likely win a case against your ex-husband based on imflammatory statements he made in a courtroom. Even if your case was actionable, you will need to prove that you were damaged financially or otherwise by his words (rather than his...
