Divorce

I have been in an abusive relationship for over 6 years now. Lately, it has reached levels where I actually have blacked out when he hits me. I was in it for so long only because I thought I could change him. I don’t see any point in saving the man. I fear for my life. Isn’t this ground enough for obtaining a divorce?

My husband and I have decided to end our marriage due to personal differences. We both are real estate brokers and have substantial assets together. In the event of a divorce, how will we divide our assets?

I recently divorced my husband of seven years. We have a son together, aged 5 years old. I started requesting my ex-husband to pay $500 monthly for child support for our son. He is not listening to my requests and is yet to pay any child support. Our divorce decree does not specify any child support. I would like to know how I can get my ex-husband to pay child support.

My wife and I were married seven years ago. For the last few years we had many issues while living together and my wife moved out of the marital home. Even after separation, we were not able to resolve the problems. Therefore I decided to file for divorce. Since my wife has moved around several times since we first separated, I don’t’ have a good address for her.So, is there any other way to give her a valid notice of the divorce proceedings and get an order of divorce?

My husband and I have filed for a divorce recently and we have a 7 year old daughter living with us now. I plan to move out of the house we live in. My husband is an alcoholic and I do not want to endanger my daughter’s life by allowing her to stay with him. I’m afraidfor her safety. How do we decide who gets custody and what is the difference between legal and physical custody?
