Hydesville, CA Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

If all the terms aren't agreed upon any more then you have to file a complaint for divorce, serve the opposing party with the complaint for divorce and see if an agreement can be reached during the course of the pending divorce action. Otherwise it goes to tria and the judge makes a decision.

If you have already spent $50,000 in attorney fees, it sounds like there are VERY significant issues. The agreement that you propose would be in the nature of a final property settlement agreement if the reconciliation is not successful. Although you hope it will be successful, statistically speaking, the chances of a successful reconciliation are less than 10%. Thus, making what amounts to a "final agreement" without input from your attorney presents a very high risk to you.

Here is a case synopsis THAT MAY NOT BE RELIED UPON AS THIS IS A GENERAL ANSWER AND EVERY CASE MAY BE DIFFERENT that describes THE FOLLOWING ABOUT REMARRIAGE AND PAST COURT ORDERS. Davis v. Davis (1968) P.2d 502-508. In Davis, the Supreme Court held that after remarriage of divorced parents to each other, neither could enforce against the other any support orders made in the prior divorce proceedings. The court went on to state that if the parties to the divorce again intermarry, child custody and support orders as between themselves are thereupon terminated as well as the jurisdiction of the court to enforce such orders, and that this is true whether or not the parties subsequently divorce again. When you are dealing with fragile economic issues in court, competent legal representation should always be sought, as the subject matter of the litigation is so very important. One mistake here could cause the biggest adverse consequence of your life!
