Is my wife entitled to anything after divorce if we have no properties in our names?

J Matthew Catchick
Answered by attorney J Matthew Catchick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Catchick Law, P.C.
In most cases, each Party is entitled to approximately half (50%) of what both Parties accumulated (both assets and debts) during the marriage. However, if you and your wife have been separated for 13 years, you may want to argue that each simply keeps what they have at this point. You need to ensure the Judgment of Divorce clearly states what each Party is responsible for, as to both assets and debts.

How does one enforce a divorce agreement?

Answered by attorney Michael B Dungan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Dungan, Lady & Dunga, PLLC
For relief, you have to return to the judge that granted the divorce or that judge's successor. This can be a tough issue with no good solution. The judge can tell your ex what to do, but cannot tell a bank what to do. The judge can tell your ex to refi, but if she does not qualify financially because of lack of income, or there is not enough equity in the house, court cannot fix that. The judge could order the house sold under the right circumstances, but again, if there is no equity, if it cannot sell for what is owed, that is a problem. The judge could award you the house if you want it and want to pay for it. Bankruptcy is an option if you qualify.

Is a vehicle be considered marital property if it was purchased and registered solely to me prior to our marriage?

It depends on facts you do not reveal. Go to court and ask the court to decide. Establish how much equity was in the vehicle prior to marriage.
