How do i get my name off my mortgage?

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
As part of a divorce matter, if the intent is to permit your wife to retain the home as her asset alone, you / your lawyer can require that she not only indemnify you for any liability in the event of a default on the payment obligation but that she be obligated to refinance the existing mortgage obligation within a specific period of time to remove your name from the obligation. That type of setting is routinely addressed by counsel in a divorce matter and made a part of a court order in a divorce or made a part of a divorce settlement agreement.

If a petition for divorce is withdrawn; are previously signed agreements such as Custody and Property Settlement Agreements still enforceable

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You can make it part of the consent order for the withdrawal to be that the other documents stay in place.  you want to with draw, or have the complaint dismissed without out prejudice, which would allow you to file again.  As part of the Order allowing that to happen, both parties should agree to keep all of those documents as binding for use in the final complaint.

I was married last year, i found out my pastor never had our marriage recorded but later recorded it...is my marriage still valid, was it still valid

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
I'm answering this question because the exact same thing happened to me !  Yes - its still valid, and was valid.  The final registering of the license was a clerical thing that simply records the legal act that took place, at least that's what I was told.  So don't worry !
