Your counter-suit can include a clause that requires him to pay your attorneys fees AFTER the case has been concluded. However, during the proceedings he cannot engage an attorney for you and pay his fees due to the conflict of interest that it causes.

Can a couple share the same divorce attorney?

I don't know if the law is the same in all states, but since my divorce was not contested, we used the same attorney and split the attorney fees. Although, the attorney made it very clear to my ex husband that since I was the one who filed for divorce and hired him, then I was the one he officially represented. So check with an attorney and see if you and your spouse can do the same. But you and he or she will have to agree on everything, or else you will need separate attorneys.

Can I sign a notice of termination of tenancy for my husband if I own the rental property also but didn't originally sign the rental agreement Notice was given that I handle the finances?

This depends on whether you have a power of attorney over your husband, and to what extent the power of attorney holds. If you are just doing the finances, then you may not have the right to sign the notice of termination tenancy. Besides, I don't understand why you want to sign a termination of tenancy on yourself since you are the one owns the property. What you're saying is that you are your husband's landlord.

If the father gave his daughter power of attorney does the wife need a power of attorney also if she is on his checking account?

No. The wife doesn't need a Power of Attorney because her husband executed one. If the wife is "on her husband's account" then it's a joint account and the wife can still do her own banking. However, if the wife wants to be able to have someone else do her banking for her then she will also need to execute a POA naming the daughter as her attorney-in-fact.

Why your husband hides you from his family?

This is a paradoxical question, since you are by definition a part of your own husband's family. I can only imagine that he has more than one family and is trying to keep one family from learning about the other, since bigamy is illegal.


I am getting divorced and my husband is threatening to make me sell the house. What rights do I have to my home if my husband's name is on the title with mine however the mortgage is in my name alone?

You are in an extremely vulnerable position since you signed the mortgage alone and then granted your husband an equal interest in the property even though he had no responsibility for paying the mortgage. You own a half interest in your home and you are the only one responsible for the mortgage. You may be required to buy his interest if you want to keep your house. You need to discuss your situation with an attorney ASAP.You are in an extremely vulnerable position since you signed the mortgage alone and then granted your husband an equal interest in the property even though he had no responsibility for paying the mortgage.
