Married in India 2006 living in Canada fir the past 16 years. Can I file for divorce in India?
I need some direction on how savings in separate accounts are treated before the Divorce process is initiated by any party.
We never have joint accounts. Based on current situation, I think we may go down to divorce path soon ( May be 1 or 2 year). I am curios on how saving in individual accounts treated.
(1) Is it true that any savings before marriage will be not shared?
(2) I really do not want to give any share on my hard earn money ( 50%) to another party if we decided to divorce. What if I start emptying my own saving now ( Gradually)? And if I apply for divorce after 1 year. Does court can red flag on me ?
Hi,
I am in a stressful situation and would appreciate some help. I am around 30 weeks pregnant, and there is a possibility of me and my spouse separating. The due date of our child is around early Feb. Both of us are employed in stable jobs and live in our mortgaged house. How will child custody and support be decided here? Thank you
I have been married for three months. I don’t have any children, I don’t want anything from my husband, I just want to leave and feel okay again. What do I need to legally do to make this happen?
Hi I moved to Canada years ago. At that time I was married with my ex-wife. Years later we got divorced in Brazil (the divorce took place in Brazil because she was living there at the time).
I want to get married next year but I’m not sure if my divorce counts here, or what should I do to make it valid.
I will say in advance, that I do have a lawyer in Alberta but I don't feel he is representing my interests but I have no way of knowing, further, I can't afford to keep paying him to tell me about all her rights and not explaining to me about mine. I also can't afford to fire him, and pay another retainer fee to someone else so I am reaching out in forums to find some answers or guidance. I am in the process of completing a separation agreement with my wife to finalize our divorce. I was in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) for 12 years but I'm not anymore. We have already agreed on division of finances, division of property, she has half my pension and the cost of spousal support. What we cannot agree on is what her and her lawyer are trying to force in to writing as what material change can and cannot be as well as the duration of spousal support. My concern is that her and her lawyer want it stated explicitly that since I quit the CAF that it can't be considered material change for the purposes or reduction or cancellation of arrears. My lawyer tells me that its the law anyways so I should just agree to it. However, If I agree to that language in the separation agreement, that to me says that no matter what happens to me in the future, new job, better job, worse job, legs cut off, etc... I will still have to pay, because I agreed that I left the CAF and that I can no longer as for a reduction or cancellation. Is this true? Or am I reading to much into it? The way I read the law is that my spousal support is based on my income, and I would rather the court decide that than her lawyer forcing me into a corner. Any advice? Also with the length of payment, my wife is 47 years old, she did have an accident years ago in a factory but she was pensioned off by WSIB and then fully retrained at an educational facility and program of her choice, and then has proven she can succeed and be gainfully employed in that field, further, she ha been trained in in medical office Admin and banking, both of which she has held successful employment in. Now she claims she can only find part time work in a bank , Mon, Tues, and Thursdays only. She has plenty of training and experience and time left in her career to support and better herself, why should I have to continue paying her for ever? Any advice?
Does the cash money or any accounts sums divide between spouses at the time of separation or divoce?
My son in law and daughter recently separated and he is now accusing her of cheating and is threatening to have her cell phone records brought into play. She has already given him everything (house, items etc) and is leaving with nothing. Can he do this and what are her rights? Is there a privacy policy in place?
My ex partner and I have joint custody of our daughter and have so for the past 7 years.
My ex served me papers wanting full custody and for my child support payment to quadruple effective in 4 weeks time.
I love my daughter dearly and see her 50% of the time. Can my ex win full custody on the with no grounds of merit? Also, can my daughter choose who she would want to live with full time if it came to that?
We have already settled support and property division so it is just a matter of getting a divorce. He wants to serve me with papers, or have me go to his lawyers since I am not protesting the divorce do I have to do anything and will it cost me money? I live in Ontario and we were married 31.5 years.
