Answer 5

possibly, it all depends, it wont affect the divorce as the reasons are set, i think, but it could affect any financial settlement ,if you are living together and you income is combined its possible that they may take your current financial situation into account. take great care and get every thing signed off it is not unheard of for spouses to come back for money after 10 years make sure that your solicitor has every thing covered.

Answer 6

It could do.

I suggest keeeping away from new partners until it is absolute.

Answer 7

I would think that at this point in your divorce you are free to date whom you choose but you might want to check with your lawyer just to make sure.  

Answer 8

Not sure, but I hope you and your new partner will be happy together.

good luck.

Answer 9

nope.  although, if you are collecting alimony and the courts find out that you are living with your new partner, the alimony could get cut off. if you marry your new partner, it will definitely be cut off.

Answer 10

If your new partner is disproportionately wealthy your ex may be able to say he has more need of your assets than you, as you will be supported by a millionaire. That may or may not work for him.

You do not say if you have kids or who has custody. That will have a huge effect.

You need to protect yourself by keeping your finances very separate from those of your new partner. You may wish to have a legal document drawn up (We call them a co-habitation agreement in Australia. I am sure they have a name there too.) This can state categorically that your finances are separate and that any property owned by him is wholly and solely his. That you have no financial stake in it.

This should protect you from your ex.The co-habitation agreement will be become null and void when you remarry. Then all laws pertaining to marriage and property take precedence.Unless you sign a pre-nuptial agreement at that point and you live in a state which recognises them.
