Need some advice about divorce??

My parents have been married 30 years, the last 12 unhappily. My father is an alcoholic %26amp; very arrogant. She wants a divorce. They cannot afford to get lawyers, but he will most likely fight her on everything. The house is in her name and her fathers and her car is in her name only. Are there any laws in Ga that say that we can't have him removed from the house? Should we fight him or just let him keep the house? If he doesn't fight can we just go to the courthouse?Need some advice about divorce??
Why are you involved with helping your mother get a divorce from your father?





You need to stop this lest you seem ungrateful for his half of your existence.





This is between your parents. Leave it that way.


No matter how much you think you know, you do not know what happens behind closed doors or should not. From your own statement you find him arrogant. That may be but you seem to have no idea how his life got to this point.





Perhaps you should be spending some time trying to get him some assistance for his addiction instead of driving him out of your life and taking sides.


That would be a good role for a child toward a parent NOT helping stir the pot of discord.Need some advice about divorce??
You would have to check with a lawyer there in Ga. I know here in SC they have a free legal service set up here for it's residents. But in my opinion, I doubt you can just have him removed, no more than you can have a tenant removed without going through the proper procedures. Unfortunately, without a lawyer, it'll be pretty hard to proceed with a complicated divorce. The best thing you can do is be there for your mother emotionally.
If the house is in your mothers name and grandfathers name then yes you can have him removed from the property. If they cannot afford lawyers then your mother would have to go to the court house and file all the paperwork pro-se (which means without an attorney). She should tell your dad how she feels and if he doesn't want to leave and she's serious, then call the police and have him booted out. I know it's hard living with an alcoholic, good luck to you honey!
