Are you maaried? If so you are entitled i understand to half of the house. Make no promises, and go and see a soilkcitor asap
Hugs to you, I do hope you are OKxxx:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.

Um... well, IANAL, but if you are married, all the debts in the marriage and all the assets are considered in the divorce settlement. The essence of my advice is that you need to see a divorce lawyer. Online advice won't cut it in this situation.
It is unlikely you (or the lawyers) could force the sale on the house until the kids are 16 in any case.“The ideas of debtor and creditor as to what constitutes a good time never coincide.”

Echo the advice given, you MUST see a solicitor before you leave or make any promises.0

I assume it means 'I am not a lawyer'.Debt at highest: £6,290.72 (14.2.1999)
Debt free success date: 14.8.2006 :j0 -
Defo agree with the other you need to see a lawyer babe
((((((((hugs)))))))))))Isn't the knowledge that comes from experience more valuable than the knowledge that doesn't?0 -
dont leave the house with the kids until you have seen a lawyer0

I don't know if this was just my situation but i left in a hurry (long story), i took only the kids and my clothes. In the divorce settlement i got 3k from the sale of the house which he made 19k profit. This was because i got legal aid and anything over that would have gone to them, if i had known then what i know now, i would have planned it much better, and most importantly seen a solicitor.You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !
Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?0 -
