Can a judge force me to remain in business with my husband?

Answered by attorney Violet Ikeanyi Nwokoye (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Nwokoye Law Firm
No, the judge will not force you to go into business or remain in business with anyone, however when a divorce is pending the judge can order what happens to a community property, income or business if the parties do not have an agreement. Since this is a family business, the sale will not be just your decision to make if a divorce pending.

I just married on April 26 2020 I brought my fiancee over from Kenya on a K1 Visa so we can do this here. Is she entitle to my pension ?

Answered by attorney Ronda Elizabeth Harris
Divorce lawyer at Harris Law Firm, PLLC
Getting married does not make all of your assets community property. Community property is what is earned during the marriage. However, there are more things to be concerned about when you marry someone who is not an American. I would caution you to be careful. I have represented multiple people who have spouses from overseas and have been caught up in a marriage scam.  It starts with demands for money, access to all money, then constant fighting, attempts to provoke you to physical violence, and it gets worse from there. If any of this sounds familar, then you need to seek an attorney immediately. The way the rest of this plays out .....you go to jail while your new spouse cleans you out and gets a fast track to a green card. If you cannot afford an attorney and any of this sounds familiar, I encourage you to do some internet research on this issue as soon as possible.

Is an inheritance I recieved and then put my wifes name on the account considered community property in texas?

Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
No, an inheritance is separate property. If you use the money for the purchase of something else that both of you will use and enjoy (like a house), then it becomes quasi-community (or partially community) property.
