Legal Question in Family Law in New Hampshire
Joint custody/desertion
My husband and I have agreed to divorce, the
paperwork has not been completed yet. We have
agreed to joint custody. He doesn't want to sell
our house. I have agreed to get an apartment and
he's agreed to buy me out. At what point is it ok
for me to leave the house and move into the
apartment with the kids (half the time)? I have an
apartment lined up but am afraid to sign the lease
and move out until I have something signed by
him agreeing that it's joint custody and I am not
deserting the children. Is it ok to sign a lease
before the decree is signed?

Re: Joint custody/desertion
Personally, I would not commit to a lease before I had a court ordered divorce decree. Also, with kids involved, I would strongly urge you to have an attorney review your agreement before finalizing.
