Can I take our car from my wife since it’s in both our names?

Cassandra T Savoy
Answered by attorney Cassandra T Savoy (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cassandra T. Savoy, PC
There is no self-help in the State of New Jersey. If you can not negotiate the car, you probably need to file an action with the court.

How does SSDI derivative payments from Custodial Parents work history effect Non-custodial Parents Child Support payment

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question. SSDI is considered as income on the Child Support Guidelines worksheets and is factored in to the parents’ child support obligations.  If a child is receiving derivative benefits, that will count as a credit towards the non-custodial spouse’s child support obligation.   In terms of whether the court correctly applied credits, we would need to see more information, including the child support guidelines worksheets calculations with supporting documentation and any court order, and we would encourage you to schedule an appointment for a consultation.

Will I have to pay for half of our home in a divorce if the House is not in my name and my husband owned the home before I moved in and we were marrie

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question.As part of a divorce it will need to be determined what will occur with the home. Regardless of whose name the home is in, if it was purchase during the marriage with marital funds, it is a marital asset that will need to be divided. In some cases, one party may wish to keep the home and buy out the others interest. Generally after this occurs the party that maintains the home is responsible for the costs. In other situations, neither party may be able to afford the home and it will need to be sold with the proceeds to be split. Based on your circumstances, I would suggest contacting an experienced family law attorney to address your specific concerns.I hope this information was helpful to you.
