Tena`s question: my ex forgot to tell her lawyer about her 401k when we got divorced. He now works for another company, and they say I`m entitled to some of the money. His lawyer wants me to sign a waiver saying I won`t touch his 401k, but I`m not signing anything yet. Will I be able to get some of that money, and if I can, how can I do it? Brette`s answer: My experience is that most people move away from a feeling of divorce, as if they had the short end of the stick. No one wins in this situation. If circumstances have changed (a worse situation for you or a better situation for them), you can ask for more help for the children. Alimony can also be increased with a change in circumstances. You should speak to another lawyer if you want to get information about tracking this research. In certain circumstances, monthly payments may be ordered by one ex-spouse to another. In Texas, monthly payments for spouses or alimony could be ordered if a marriage lasted more than 10 years or if there is a history of domestic violence within two years of the first divorce. In addition, an ex-spouse may receive financial assistance if he or she has a disability that prevents him from working or if he is caring for a child with special needs. Sometimes, when a written notification of refusal is sent, a date is set for the date on which the change must be submitted.
It is very important to submit all documents on time, ideally earlier than the deadline. In many courts, failure to file amended documents within the time frame will lead the judge to dismiss your case. In this case, your case is virtually closed and you may have to file for divorce and pay the registration fee again. Changes in jobs, jobs, income, custody and child care issues, and the distribution of ownership and debt are the most common reasons why you may be required to submit an amended document. The practical questions that will be asked within six months of your divorce are therefore, at best, suspect.
