A: Unless you are Court ordered to do it, you usually do not. We would need more information to be able to answer definitively. Has the divorce already been file?
A: If you don’t have any type of court order to do so then you shouldn’t have to. However, we would need to know the facts of your case in detail in order to provide more guidance.
