Q. I filed for divorce and my wife won't leave.The house is mine, she moved in with me 3 and a half years ago.We have no ki

A: You will need to speak to your divorce attorney to come up with the best method, without making this into such a contested divorce that you will need to liquidate the house just to pay the attorney's fee. Normally a person's separate property remains their separate property and the court will not take the title away. However, you might need to reimburse her for community property invested into the house. This is when your attorney and her attorney come into play and discuss negotiate and try to come to an agreement everyone agrees on, and allow to both of you to move on.

Q. I was recently charged with family violence. The person wants to drop them.

15 July 2018

A: The State unfortunately can pick up the charges. Even if the complainant does not testifies. It mainly depends how well recorded the complainant's statements and report are, and how well the police testify. My suggestion is to have your attorney view the facts deeper, and he will have more of an idea how the prosecutor in that county operates.
