Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
marriage/divorce
In 2001 I was married in Wash. state. Our marraige licence was completed and signed in my wifes past married name-Webb. Now going thru divorce, I find out her name was legally changed to LeClaire a few months prior to our marrage. Was our marriage legal and how does that financially affect any divorce settlement? Thanks!

You should seek the advice of an attorney in Washington to determine if signing an incorrect name to a marriage license essentially voids the license.
