WHAT FINANCIAL RELIEF CAN I REQUEST FROM MY SPOUSE IN A DIVORCE?

QUESTION: I am a stay at home mother of our 2 year old son. I want to see what my options are financially pertaining to a divorce. My husband works full time. I do not have a job outside of the home, so I do not make an income. What financial relief can I request from my husband in the divorce papers?

MY RESPONSE:

Request Legal and Physical Custody of your children; Request Child Support; Request Spousal Support; Request Attorney's fees; Request division of Community Property; if you want your maiden or former name back, request that; and in the "other relief" area, request: "Such other and further relief as may be just and equitable".
