Finances

“If the wife leaves for a week, can she then return & make me leave the house upon demand, or is a legal writt required first, & if so on what grounds are they issued”
“I am seperating from my long term partner. We are not married but have a 16 year old daughter. The house and mortgage is in joint names, but paid for solely by myself. I also pay all utility bills. My partner claims that she is entitled to half the value of the house. Is this true?.”
“Can my husband still make a financial claim once we have both received our decreee absolute? Also if my husband had promised me in writing an amount of money as a good will gesture can he refuse to pay it and do I have to go through the courts to get the money- his solicitor is refusing to pay this too and being threathening.”
“My husband claims he can sell the house we live in without informing me as his is only name on deeds and I'm not on the mortgage. I have 1 child with him and 2 children (from previous) he brings up as his own. He also has 2 children from a previous relationship and we all live together, can he do this?.”
“Going through a divorce, my husband evicted my daughter and I from the marital home and rented it out. He is now saying to his solicitor that he put majority of deposit into buying the property he should get majority of the profit when the property is sold.”
“We can’t sort out the money without getting the court involved.”
“If we divorce, the court will sort out the money issues.”
“I’ve always worked, paid the mortgage and provided everything. My wife has never worked and has just stayed at home with the children. She’ll need enough to live on, but I will keep the rest.”
“I can take my wife to court to resolve financial issues without seeking a divorce.”
“We separated three years ago and I have bought two houses since then. My wife won’t be allowed to claim against those.”
“We are splitting up so will just have to divide all of our assets down the middle.”
“I paid the deposit on the house we bought in joint names. I’ll get that back first before the equity is split.”
“My friend only had to pay his wife £20,000 when they divorced. His case is similar to mine so I will have to pay the same.”
“We have no money so I don’t need to worry about advice in relation to a financial settlement.”
“I am being chased by credit card and loan companies who are owed money by my husband. If he doesn’t pay, I will be liable for the debts.”
“Closed bank accounts do not have to be disclosed ”
“We drafted a financial agreement between us at the time of separation and that is binding.”
“My husband and I have agreed privately how to split the finances as we do not wish to attend court for a Consent Order.”
“My husband and I are in the process of divorcing. We have agreed how we will split the finances so we do not require a court order.”
“My name’s not on the title deeds to our house and we are not married, but I will still get half as we have lived together as husband and wife.”
“My adultery will affect what I will receive from the financial settlement.”
“I have cared for the children throughout our marriage, but have not had a proper job. This means I am entitled to less when we divorce.”
“If I get divorced, I will have to give my wife 50% of everything.”
“I obtained my divorce 10 years ago. It is too late to obtain a financial settlement. ”
“All financial claims are automatically dismissed on pronouncement of the Decree Absolute.”
