Can I change the locks on the door if my wife abandons me?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Do it before a divorce proceeding is filed so that you are not violating a court order. However, you will need to give her reasonable access to get her things.

Is court ordered alimony lawful and ethical?

Answered by attorney Anne Barbara Howard (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Anne B. Howard, A Professional Law Corporation
I have male clients getting alimony. It's more common now than you think. In California look at FC section 4320

Summons left at front door.

Answered by attorney Charles D. Scott (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott PLLC
The summons left at the front door may be considered as valid service of process, and as such you should not ignore it.  In most states an answer is due within 20 days, so you should read the summons and file an appropriate answer to the complaint in the court listed in the summons, and send a copy of your answer to the attorney that served it.  The answer is not simply a response letter, it is a formal pleading in proper format that addresses the allegations in the complaint. As for the house, if you own it with your husband, it is probably safe from a lawsuit, especially if you claim homestead.  Making a transfer of any assets at this time is considered a fraudulent transfer made as a result of a pending lawsuit and I would advise against it.
