There are various steps that must be taken before an agreement to give up rights will be enforced by the court. I suggest you meet with a family law paralegal to help you prepare the multitude of forms and documents you will need.

How is the best route for a civil divorce while family is still in probate.

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
Your best course of action is to contact an attorney who practices in the area of divorce law in or near the county where you and your husband live.That attorney can explain to you that property inherited by one spouse is that spouse's sole and separate property and is not community property.  If your husband inherited assets from his family (or really from anyone else), those assets are his sole and separate property and you have no community rights to them.You may be entitled to spousal maintenance under the Texas Family Code if you are destitute and homeless.  There are specific statutory requirements that you must satisfy, and spousal maintenance is limited in amount and duration.  You will need proof of your efforts to secure gainful employment or of any disability that prevents you from securing gainful employment.

I am a retired Navy veteran. My current spouse cheated on me. I can prove it. Is she entitled to my retirement benefits? Married for 22 years.

Bradley Roger Gammell
Answered by attorney Bradley Roger Gammell (Unclaimed Profile)

Short answer:  Probably, yes.   Whatever retirement was earned by either party during the marriage is subject to division by the judge at divorce.   This means that the retirement you earned prior to the marriage is your separate property and the retirement earned during the marriage is community property.  Also, any retirement your spouse earned during the marriage is also subject to division as community property.  Generally speaking, if you were married for 10 years while you were on active duty, she would be awarded 25% of your disposable retired pay.   If you have waived part of your retired pay (for example to receive VA disability pay), she would not be entitled to a share of the VA disability.  Fault in the breakup of the marriage is one basis by which the court can award a disproportionate share of the community property to the wronged party.
