What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California


Hi. Me and my wife filed for an uncontested divorce in California where she agreed and signed that I will not owe her any money/support/alimony going forward. After the divorce is final (6 month waiting period in California) and signed by a judge, can she change her mind later and demand support/alimony? Can I be legally held liable for alimony or any form of ex-spousal support in such a case? Any advice or info will be appreciated, thanks.

Theoretically, once the divorce is final, it's final. However, if it can be proved that the documents you submitted related to income and assets were fraudulent, then she may have a case to reopen the property settlement.
