Yesterday I found out that my husband went on Vacation with another family he has (girlfriend and kids). We have been married for 5 years and I still can not believe what he is doing. I'm totally in shock.... He is coming back next monday and I don't want him to come home anymore. How do I have to proceed?

You hire an attorney, and file for divorce. All assets acquired during the marriage are typical split, including retirements, cash, home equity, etc. All liabilities are also split. If your incomes are very different, one party may get more under equitable distribution. Adultery rarely plays a part in divorce, with no-fault divorce laws. I doubt you will be able to have him out by Monday....the divorce process is faily slow....with a minimum of several months, and typically 6 or more. Also, with a short term marriage alimony is uncommon, although if you don't work, you might get 1/2 year of so of temporary support. Do you have children?

To file for divorce you must seek a divorce based on certain grounds. The available grounds include a no-fault ground which is separation for 18 consecutive months (must be living in separate residences) with no reasonable prospects of reconciliation.
The grounds that are available and referred to as fault grounds are institutionalization for mental illness for at least 24 consecutive months; deviant sexual conduct; imprisonment for at least 18 months; adultery (no time limit) willful and continued desertion for at least 12 months; habitual drunkenness or voluntary addiction; extreme cruelty, either bodily or mental.
File for divorce and in your petition ask for exclusive use of the marital home ( which may/may not be granted ) .

Yes, I have a daughter but he is her stepfather. (She is a teen). You know, the funny thing is that he used his debit card from a Cruise in the Caribbean on Sunday and we can not even pay our bills right now. I'm so frustrated about this situation because he is abusing me financially. Today I had some legal advice and tomorrow I have another appointment. Unfortunate the mortgage, cars and most of the bills are in my name and I can't pay that by myself. I think that my credit is going to be affected by this. Any ideas please????

after 30 years my daughter caught her father cheating on me and thats when he had to admit it otherwise he probably wouldn't. he has been seeing her for 10 months and would come home and come to bed with me and text her when i was sleeping. i had locks changed after he took a bag of his clothes out of the house and he told me i had to give him a set but when he showed up with the cops for some items they told me since he was removing clothing i owed him no keys. i can't go to an attorney right now, no money, and i need the home equity paid that we are using for our kids college. I also found out that he opened a new company but i cant' find out the name of it. i don't want to screw myself or my kids. boy am i in a mess. right now i hate my life.
