Can my husband continue filling for divorce without my signature?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
Generally speaking, if you dont pick up the papers from his lawyer (e.g. accepting service of the documents), then they will have no choice but to have you served by a process server, and the divorce will still proceed.

In an amicable divorce, is it okay to minimize paperwork by omitting certain assets (car) from the settlement agreement?

David Ari Goldberg
Answered by attorney David Ari Goldberg
Divorce lawyer at The Goldberg Legal Group
Although the divorce process may be going along peacefully, I would suggest you disclose everything including separate property. Both parties have a duty to fully disclose their assets and debts. If the court judgement does not address a particular asset, it is considered unadjudicated. The other party can go back to court and request that particular community property asset(s) and/or debt(s) be divided. It is considered an "omitted asset" and if the court finds fraud in failure to disclose, it can award the entire value of the asset to the other party. Unless there is a real good reason to not disclose the asset or debt, it is better to avoid the potential risk and disclose it now rather it become an possible issue later.
