[OH] [OH] I am trying to divorce my husband, who was diagnosed with dementia. What are the legal considerations?

I have had a preliminary consultation with a divorce attorney. The retaining cost is $4,000 which is a bit steep currently. I decided to file the preliminary paperwork myself as a result. If, in fact an attorney is needed further into the process I plan to certainly secure that service. My husband was diagnosed with dementia last October and his needs far outweigh what I am reasonably able to provide. During consult with the attorney, she mentioned that the state may mandate a representing advocate husband due to his diagnosis. Is this the case? Additionally, my children sold the home to us with $60,000 equity for my sake to be close to the grands. Can this be considered? I have not filed yet.

[TN] [TN] I’m helping my sister file for an interstate divorce. How do I do this?

They have not signed any agreement. They are both in their 80s and have been married about 6 1/2 years. She moved back home to TN for health reasons, and he does not want to move with her. Basically, I believe she will keep what was hers and he will keep what was his. No minor children. No major assets. She does have some savings and stock that she had going into the marriage. We are not sure what debts he has. She has no debts.

I am just looking to file for divorce. My wife had a major stroke 5 years ago. We had agreed to divorce before her accident. I stayed to take care of her. I want to just get the filing in to start the process. I plan on selling our home with most of the equity going toward her care. Until that time comes, I will continue to take care of her until her family and I make arrangements for where she will be going. Can I file before then?
