Can I request back child support from my husband for the 4 months that we were separated?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
In Michigan, child support obligations are not retroactive beyond the date of filing a motion seeking to have the child support put into effect. Therefore it is imperative that you as quickly as possible file a motion and begin the process for the placement and implementation of a support order. Most probably you will want to deal with custody/parenting time at the same time. Unless you are familiar with the process, I would strongly recommend you seek counsel.

Do I owe anything to her if my names not on any of the credit cards or anything in case of divorce?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Eric K Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Utah Family Law LC
In Utah, the court has the power to apportion responsibility for debts incurred during the marriage by one spouse or the other between both of the spouses. What this means is, for example, that if you incurred a credit card debt in your own name during the marriage and use the credit card to purchase things only for your own benefit, it is still possible (though unlikely) that the court can order your wife to pay some or all of that credit card debt. So, in your situation, even if your name is not on your wife's credit card, the court could, if it finds there is an equitable basis for doing so, order you to pay some or all of her credit card debt.

Can my husband kick me out of the house that is under his name?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Julie Anne Ringquist (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Julie A. Ringquist
Neither of you may kick the other out of the home. If either of you has a good reason why having one spouse move out is necessary (domestic violence), then you may go to the court and file papers to have the other person leave. If you are filing for Divorce or Legal Separation, then you should request that the court order child and spousal support to be paid
