    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Q. I was served with a complaint and summons at the end of August. I know I have to do something in 20 days, and I am worried because it’s been almost 20 days. I called several family lawyers but cannot get an appointment for another week. I don’t know how to get a quicker appointment and no one seems to think this is an emergency. What will happen when I don’t respond in 20 days? A. No one is treating your situation as an emergency because it isn’t one. Unless you were served with other papers

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Q. I was just served with a complaint for contempt by my ex-wife because I stopped paying alimony last month and stopped paying child support by agreement when our twins started college in 2024. Our divorce agreement states that alimony ends upon her remarriage. She got married in 2020 and hid it from me.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Q. Ex husband worked for a company which was recently sold. He took an early retirement package as part of the sale. He is 59 and now considers himself retired. He told me he is going to stop paying alimony but will continue to honor his commitment until the end of December because then he will be 60 and can retire formally.
