Daisy7 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 From all those who have been through this experience and learned from it, can you guys help me a little bit? what are things to consider when filing for divorce in the US within the states? I have no children, and just wondering what is involved, i heard divorce is extremely expensive, i dont think i can afford a lawyer unless i max out my credit cards and i would hate to be in debt how does all this work, am lost here. I can't afford to leave at the moment recently i lost my job and i am pretty much completely dependent on my husband which sucks tremendously, i mean i don't have any bills at all the only thing i ask him for is for groceries for the house once a month and thats it. The house we live in is our close family friend's who is away and we are pretty much living here until he returns which won't be for a while since he is away for 3 and a half years in Germany, so we are watching it for him. I am also in school right now trying to better myself so that i can find a job and i am paying for that myself with some savings that i managed to save up which wont last me long i have exactly $2,000 left.Once that runs out, i will have to quit school also. I honestly feel hopeless above many other concerns. any advice would be greatly appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
2sure Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Well, let's talk this out. How old are you, how long have you been married, and are you feeling abused or threatened ? The There is always more than one way to get from A to B! Link to post Share on other sites
2sure Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Since you have no children or assets or debt, your divorce will be straight forward. You may be able to do the paperwork yourself and only have to pay the court fling fee. You might be able to contact Volunteer Lawyers Association, Neighborhood Legal Services, or just your family court. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Daisy7 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 im 26 we have been married for 2 years. He is aggressive sometimes, one time he got so angry with me that he threw a porcelain plate he was eating on accross the room near where i was and it fell near me and shards scratched my legs this and many other things, i cant ask or say anything to him sometimes because he just snaps at me and yells at me and so much other crap.

2sure Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I've read your other threads. You aren't happy , that's for sure. it's either growing pains from a new marriage, which can be brutal or the marriage just isn't going to work. you're going to need someplace to live if you divorce. Without a job, how will that be possible? are your parents an option? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
