Can I get alimony and sole custody of our children if I divorce my husband?

Answered by attorney Jessica M Cotter (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Firm of Jessica M. Cotter, P.L.L.C.
In Arizona you do not need a reason to get a divorce, other than that your marriage is irretrievably broken, with no prospect of reconciliation. The court will not give Spousal Maintenance (alimony) unless you meet the elements set forth in A.R.S.25-319. The Court looks at the best interest of the children when deciding who has the final legal decision making authority ( Sole custody). The court does not consider cheating when deciding on these two issues. I recommend contacting an experienced family law attorney regarding the divorce process.

Can we have a mutual divorce without help from an attorney?

Answered by attorney John F. Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Yes, it is possible, a single attorney could be a mediator/arbitrator and only the scribe, but the better way is to have one lawyer hired by one of the parties who does the work and represents one of the parties only, with the final agreement taken to the other party's attorney, hired for an hour or two, to review and explain the proposed judgment to their client.

You are married until the judge decrees you are not. You can and should enroll her until that time at least.
