Q. My wife filled a divorce while I was in rehab and now we are together is there away to reverse or cancel the divorce?
A: Yes, this is an easy process. She will need to file a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal. The clerk will then send it to the Judge who can then dismiss the divorce.
Q. If I open a business w/o my wife's assistance, is she entitled to ownership in a divorce?
A: Yes, property acquired during the marriage, except for inheritance is considered marital property. Florida is a 50-50 equitable distribution state. This means that, any interest acquired in any assets during the marriage is subject to equal division. This does not matter if her income is more. One way to prevent this is to do a post nuptial agreement.
