My daughter got married in Texas and then left for Russia. Her husband wants a divorce, and proposes Annulment, on the ground of "fraud". What consequences will it entail for the future life of my daughter (for example, career). Can he do it without her, and is it really possible to “pin on” such a ground (in fact, there was love and consent)? Why is he afraid of "Divorce" and how to allay his fears? (She is not going to lay claims to anything. Is she required to go to America in order to get a divorce? If she remains married in America, will it be of importance for her in Russia and in general? | | | | 1536. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |

I am married to a woman in the Ukraine. Prior to getting married we purchased apartment in Ukraine. It is in her name because I did not have tax id. Since getting married in 2007, she has become more demanding for money and very secretive and does not answer questions when I ask her. I have a feeling that she is scamming me. Do you think detectives can get information on her scamming me and I get the apartment back and get an annulment? To get annulment do I need to go there and can you do that? | | | | 1502. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |
I met my wife over 3.5 years ago. We a civil marriage in Odessa Oblast, Ukraine. She is a current green card holder in US. She has maintained relationships with male friends throughout our marriage which sometimes stressed me. Her mother was ill so she returned to Ukraine to be with her. During the last few months there have been a lot of stresses on our family. My mother died, her father died. I was in Ukraine for New Year. Two weeks ago, by surprise, my wife told me she would divorce me. Although she contends I did everything to make her comfortable her, she missed her country. Two days later, we talked and at that time the divorce was put on hold. The next day, I received an email from one of her male friends detailing an apparent affair with him. Although the evidence would make anyone think twice, I am an intelligient man and have records that prove otherwise. The issue here is my wife values her privacy and believes that I comprimised her trust by hacking into her mail account. I am in IT and her friend was a company owner. Right now she is extremely angry at me an will not talk to me. One of my Ukrainian friends told me that she can just get a lawyer there and claim that I abused her and she can get an uncontested divorce. Is this the case. I do not want a divorce and my immigration lawyers believe otherwise about her. I do not want to see her hurt. What is your advice? | | | | 1492. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |

Замужем за гражданином США 2 года 11 месяцев. Сейчас в процессе получения второй грин карты, т.е. первая грин-карта експаерд (13 февраля 2008), получили письмо, что вторую гринку получу в течение года (февраль 2009)У меня сын от первого брака(11 лет) муж хочет развода и я тоже была бы рада развестись, но где гарантия, что меня не департируют, так как у меня еще нет постоянной грин-карты. Имею постоянную работу, свой счет в банке, медстраховку на себя и сына. Со стороны мужа постоянный моральный обьюз, который я доказать не смогу. Вопрос, если разведусь на этом этапе или просто уйду от мужа на квартиру, как это может повлиять на мое получения второй грин-карты? Спасибо | | | | 1484. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |

My bride living in Ukraine divorced more than two years ago. She has an eight-year old daughter living with her in Ukraine. I want us all to live in France where I live, after we get married. But she consulted two lawyers in Ukraine, and they both told her that without her ex-husband`s consent she would not be able to take her child from Ukraine. Meanwhile, it has no difference if we are married or not.
Please, explain to me how the Ukrainian law handles this situation. Does she really have to wait 10 years until her daughter is 18 to be able to build her further life? She sees it impossible to immigrate without her daughter.
Can she and her daughter go for a short holiday to France? Or is the child`s father`s consent is necessary in this case as well?
Please, tell me about it in detail. Could you possibly help? | | | | 1474. | Category: Family Law: termination of parental rights, rights of the child, alimony. | | |
During our stay in USA my husband and I gave birth to a daughter. We are all citizens of Russia. When I was pregnant our relations were damaged, and I decided not to register my husband as father of my daughter. Presently, my husband (her father) lives in Russia. I live in New York and I am going to start divorce proceedings in Russia – according to place of residence of my spouse, but I am afraid that my husband may make me bring my daughter to Russia. My husband presently does not have any documents proving existence of my daughter, but I am afraid that in the course of divorce proceedings he may send a request to the archives and may receive her birth certificate. Is it possible to somehow avoid this problem?
That is the main question: what should be done to get divorced and what should be done not to make the issue re: our daughter an obstacle during the divorce proceedings? Frankly speaking, it is hard for me to formulate the issue more precisely, because all possible scenarios of development of this case, which I can imagine, come to the same thing, i.e. that I will have to return my daughter (and, naturally travel to Russia myself), because he will request the court to guarantee his rights to see her. | | | | 1470. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |
I am divorced from a Lady from Russia since 08 August January 2007. The divorce was in mutual agreement and occurred in Moscow. I live in United States, now she also lives in America. She has just now applied for Divorce and a claim on my assets in New York.
During the Application for Divorce in Moscow I think I remember a question about claims on each others assets.
Does a question on claims on each others assets exist during the application process for divorce in Moscow. If so what is the name of this document? Is it possible to obtain without traveling to Russia? | | | | 1472. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |
Dear Mrs. Krasnova,
I found your site on the internet and I have some question concerning apostille on certificates. My wife to be has gotten a marriage and divorce certificate from her home town (Shahkty near Rostov) but there is no Apostille attached. She is now living in Kyrgyzstan and cannot get an apostille there. It took her 6 months to get this document and now it is not legal in Europe. I have some questions: Is it possible to attaches an apostille on the originals when she is in Moscow?
If it is possible, where can she do it and what time she needs to do it? (She can stay some days in Moscow).
If it is not possible, how can she obtain this documents WITH apostille and within 6 weeks?
She has made translations from them and are 'legalized' (she says) by the Russian consul. Is that lawful?
Is it possible that YOU can do all of this, if yes how much will it cost and how long does it take? | | | | 1465. | Category: Family Law: divorce proceedings, conclusion of marriage | | |

I was married with a Russian woman in the May of 2004. Because of me, she got a green card in the USA and she is a permanent resident of the USA this days. In one year our son was born. He got US citizenship by birth and my wife obtained Russian passport for him in consulate. Now our co-life isn’t good, and she wants to divorce according to the Russian laws. She convinces that the son was registered in Russia, though we permanently are living in the USA, and I don’t know how it is possible. I don’t want to divorce in Russia, to which we haven’t any concern and, especially, I don’t want that my son will live in Russia. Could she kidnap the child and secretly take it to Russia? What is the penalty of this in Russian laws? How could I prevent the legal investigation in Russia? | | |
