How can my wife be entitled to any part of my veterans affairs pension?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Anne Barbara Howard (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Anne B. Howard, A Professional Law Corporation
Sounds like your pension is your separate property. You should talk to an attorney to help you. VA probably will need to see copy of court order/judgment confirming that it's your separate property.

Can I gift money from my personal account to a family member, before a divorce is filed.

Michael Andrew Conte
Answered by attorney Michael Andrew Conte (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Conte Family Law LLC
If there is no court order preventing you from going something, then you can do it. The question, I think, that is on your mind is whether there will be a consequence in a divorce if you move money out of your personal account into a family members account. The answer to that question is maybe. If the money in your personal account is "marital" in nature, then it would be normally subject to equitable distribution with your spouse. If it was earned by either party during the marriage, it is marital in nature. It is normal in a divorce to acquire bank statements going back perhaps 5 years as part of the discovery process. If you are trying to dissipate the marital estate prior to divorce, then it will probably not go unnoticed.

He doesn’t want to give me any money or take care of my personal needs can he do that?

Elena Weitz
Answered by attorney Elena Weitz
Divorce lawyer at Elena Weitz (Principal at OffitKurman)
If you are going through divorce proceedings, he is obligated to continue to maintain the ‘status quo’ of the marriage until the divorce is final. That means that he has to continue to pay all expenses and continue all financial arrangements that occurred during the marriage. It sounds as if he is not willing to do this voluntarily. I suggest consulting with an attorney regarding this. Applications to the court can be made to compel him to continue the status quo.
