I have a question about marital debt in a divorce.

Kelly Snodgrass
Answered by attorney Kelly Snodgrass
Divorce lawyer at Robinson & Henry, P.C.
Unfortunately, in general, just as any property or increase in value of property accrued during the marriage is marital property subject to division, so is debt.  There may be situations or factors that change your obligation on the debt, and certainly a savvy attorney can help you find any loopholes.   With $88,000 at stake, I definitely suggest you consult with an attorney.  - Kelly L.

How do I prove that he owed me a fiduciary duty?

David M. Rich
Answered by attorney David M. Rich (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Flatiron Legal Advisors LLC
You don't have to prove he owed you a fiduciary duty, that is presumed. If this was within 5 years, you may be able to undo the property and child support and a maintenance can be changed any time.

How do I respond to a divorce filed by my husband in the US?

David M. Rich
Answered by attorney David M. Rich (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Flatiron Legal Advisors LLC
You can call the clerk of the court to ask for copies of the papers. Depending on the process he used, he may be able to ask for money. You could make him start over if you could prove he lied when he filed stating he did not know where you are. If he only wants a decree of divorce and is not asking for any money, then you might be best off going through with it, as it?s not a good idea to remain married to someone with questionable behavior, since there are always some risks to you being his spouse. As well, if he wants a divorce, the court is going to grant it, as they will not force people to stay married, so it probably is in your best interest to go along with it if only to ensure your rights are protected. A lawyer in Colorado, like me, can enter an appearance, review the case, talk to him and help you get though it. If the case is uncontested (i.e., he is not asking for money and you are not either), it would not be expensive to have us help you (likely under $1,500).
