Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
My husband filled for a divorce after 14 years of mariage. I just received the paperwork. We have joint accout that we received our rental check payble to both of us and investment check also comes in payble to both of us. Can we still have a joint account or the rental check and the investment checks have to be split in half and payble to each one of us ? Thank you.

A joint account permits either owner to use the account. If you have concerns, open your own account and transfer your share of the joint account into it after the check clears.

It will also depend on who gets what assets.
