Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Divorce

I am seperated from my wife thru a injuction for domestic violence. I was ordered out of my home and ordered to pay child support only by the judge. Since I do not live at the home and wont am i still responsible for the morgage and utilities? My name was taken off the morgage when my wife went and refinanced the home behind my back. I was out of the country for a year and she started an affair with another man and there is over $147,000 missing from our joint account that she transfered into her personal account that I have no acess to. Where will I stand with this knowledge in the divorce proceedings with this? I am looking for an attorney because the one that represented me during the DV hearing is asking for over $3,500 to file the documents for divorce and represent me.

Re: Divorce

If your name is not on the mortgage and utilities, you are not responsible for them. The matter of the $147k will have to be handled in your divorce but, as a general rule, you should be entitled to your half.
