Common Questions
What kind of relief can I get?
Temporary relief can include child support, spousal support (alimony pendente lite), temporary exclusive use of the marital home, temporary custody/time-sharing, and attorney's fees.
How long do temporary orders last?
Temporary orders remain in effect until the final judgment is entered or the court modifies them. They're meant to maintain the status quo while your divorce proceeds.
What if it's a true emergency?
