If I sold my car, is my spouse entitled to the car?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Eric Kent Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Utah Family Law LC
There's obviously more to this story than you are sharing, but based upon what you have stated: If the car is in your name alone or in the name of "You or Spouse," then you are free to sell the car without her consent (that doesn't mean you should, but you can). The proceeds from the sale of the car are marital funds if the car was purchased during the marriage with marital funds or if the car was titled in your name and hers. Either way, she is not entitled to the car, but will likely be entitled to half the proceeds of sale.

Splitting Bills during the 60-120 day cooling period

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
That is untrue.  Typically, when parties file for divorce, they either agree or the court enters temporary orders detailing which party gets exclusive temporary use and possession of real estate, motor vehicles, and potentially other property and which recurring bills each party is ordered to pay during the pendency of the case.  Such temporary orders may also include temporary support for a spouse or any children of the marriage, interim attorney fees if one party in in control of most of the community funds, and a parenting plan for custody & possession of any children.It is not automatic that each spouse must pay 1/2 of all bills.

How can I pay my half of the IRS tax debt and have my ex-wife pay for her half

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
Generally speaking, your divorce decree creates binding obligations between you and your former spouse.  It typically does not (and cannot) in any way limit a third-party creditor's rights against either you or your former spouse because the creditor was not a party to your divorce proceeding.When the parties have a joint debt obligation, including a tax debt, at the time of divorce, the court typically includes provisions as to how those debts are paid.  A typical provision begins with the language similar to the following:"IT IS ORDERED AND DECREED that Petitioner A.C. shall pay, as a part of the division of the estate of the parties, and shall indemnify and hold Respondent B.C. and his property harmless from any failure to discharge, these items:"This is typically followed by a laundry list of debts which may include 50% of any past tax debt of the parties incurred during their marriage.To enforce this provision against your ex-wife, you would first pay the IRS the entire tax debt, then sue your ex-wife for indemnity seeking a judgment against her for the 50% she was ordered to pay and to indemnify you from any failure to discharge.  You would then get a judgment against her, which likely will include interest and attorney fees, which you could then collect using any of the legal methods available for collection of an ordinary civil judgment subject to the usual property exemptions

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
