A: What the court may order is going to be very fact specific to each individual case. To get reliable information applicable to your specific situation consult with an attorney. The Governor has declared that Attorneys are considered essential and therefore many attorneys are still operating and filing cases.

A: I agree with Pete. Additionally, most Courts will want you to leave her no worse off than if you weren't divorcing. Most judges would frown on you not making sure she has either the ability to get to her doctors appointments or the financial ability to uber. You definitely need to hire an attorney to help guide you through this process.
