My husband just suddenly called me up and said he's signed some divorce papers and someone will be contacting me.
We have been separated for a few years, but have no legal separation filed, or parenting plan for our young son.
He also informed me he is getting married in 2 months and having a baby with his fiance 3 months after that!
How long does it generally take a divorce to go through? I'm thinking he's cutting it pretty close.
Also, can it proceed without a parenting plan in place?
We've also not really formalized child support either. For the past few years he's been doing some number crunching with respects to his paying for daycare, then claiming our son on his taxes. Then whatever's left over from that he gives me in a lump sum once a year. What I'm wondering though, is how that's going to work when my son no longer needs daycare? My husband makes a lot more money than I do.
I've also heard that if I don't do anything after receiving the divorce papers, it will just go through uncontested? How long do they wait? In this case, would they want me to sign to say yes so that it would go through faster?
My husband has also recommended we just both use his lawyer for the divorce.
Any advice?
