just want to clear something about a 1.) my marriage b.)legal separation:
First, I was married but unfortunately and obviously, it didn’t get well. He was an OFW during the time we got married, he only had a vacation for 2 weeks that was year 2003 but since her Auntie has a connection in our Municipality even the permit is still on the process the Mayor married us. I check at the NSO and yes it was there. My question is can I use that instance for filing a declare of nulity of marriage?
And then, when his contract was ended by February 2004 I guess, the guy of course need to stay here and I became his “gatasan”, Im the one supporting him all along, untill It came to my senses that he is the guy and yet Im the one who works for him. He’s not looking for a new job. By the way while he’s in abroad 50% of his salary was ment for his family. So, inshort I left him. And since then we dont have communication and had our own lives. Though I know that he’s in abroad back and forth like that. And I know that he’s asking about me because we are from same place. I had my own life and family of my own.
Until december last year, the guy had a vacation here again with his girlfriend a filipina but a citizen from other country and the guy told me to sign a legal separation (they had prepared it already) because they will use it coz the girl will sponsor him, they’ll get a visa the guy told me. But I dont want to sign it because I said incased of that, why not file an annullment? And you know what? they are harrassing me through sms, he told me that he will sue me, he has lots of evidences against me (because i already have a family of my own but of course we didn’t get marry because my man knows my situation) and they even send sms that i am stupid, makapal ang mukha, my daughther is illigitimate, etc. just because I dont wanna sign the legal separation. Well, attorney what can you comment about this matter?
Thank you so much and you know at least there’s a website like this.. Thank you again.

Just want to inquire about legal separation. My mom found out that their civil marriage was a fake when she was asking for a copy at the Civil Registrar as part of the requirements for their church wedding. Now that many years has passed, a total of 27 years for being together, my mom has gone through a lot of abuses alreadt. May it be physical, mental or emotional. Lately, my mother has been experiencing “emotional and physical batteredness.” But she cant complain bcoz whenever she does, my father will hit her. I’ve been witnessing this since childhood upto now that i live away from them.

Now, my mom wants to file for legal separation since my father has always reiterated and said that once he received his retirement (he is a Military) he will leave my mom and be with his other girl. A big slap in my mom’s face but she’s afraid that once she complained she could not get anything from my father’s retirement. And that bitch could be the beneficiary. what shall we do? my father has filed for his retirement already.

My sister filed for a legal separation. Her husband is a worthless piece of husband, no work, do not support their son, drinks, etc . and has been constantly demanding money from her. She has been supporting him and their son for so many years, hoping one day he will wake up and be a good husband and father. But this did not materialize. He was asked to leave my parent’s house as he cannot and will not support the family at all and he had become a problem to the entire family including my parents whom he tried to harm physically.

They currently have a case and the husband has numerous friend lawyers who’s helping him. He’s into his third lawyer/ proxy, but he and his attorney are demanding P50,000.00 from my sister to sign the separation paper. My sister does not have that kind of money as she has to work and pay for everything, while his husband will not even give her any money to support their kid. What is your advice? His attorney has been assigning proxy and my sister is really getting hurt financially. His proxy attorney keeps on postponing the hearing since he claims he has no right to do cross-examination. This is becoming a problem. My sister do not want her husband to get custody of their son as she knows their son will just be beaten up, just like what he used to do while living at my parents’ house. The husband do not care about their son, but he’s hoping he can extort money from my sister. I want to help her take care of this problem and want her husband to pay for all the financial problem he has given her. What should I do. I don’t know who her lawyer is but I feel she needs to find a better lawyer. Is there anybody you can recommend. She lives in Cebu

The judge seems to keep on prolonging the hearing and my sister is getting desperate and she’s the only bread winner in the family and her income is fix. I really need to help her and maybe we can discuss this personally and come into terms with you.
