Partner Wants Me Out of Our Joint Home / Tennacy

Be wary of over reporting to the police. There will come a point that the police may begin to notify social care if the child is present in the home as domestic abuse will have a negative impact on their emotional well being.

Obviously if the police are needed then do call them. Not calling them would look worse to social care if they are needed. But if it really is just a snipe or two when baby is in bed then it may be better to weather the storm.

As per the title of the thread, my partner and I have just taken out a 1 year joint tenancy on a new home, however the relationship has broken down and now she wants me out of the house, I understand as its a joint tenancy she cannot do this to me. However today I have been informed that she has been seeking legal advice, one piece of advise she was given was to report any verbal mental or physical abuse to the police. We had an argument yesterday which she has now reported and been issued with a incident number. She also informs me that tonight the police will be coming to the house to make sure the house is safe for her and my 2 year old daughter which I am astounded at. I may not have been the perfect partner but I am a good dad for my daughter as well as my two other children from my previous marriage.
Can anyone advise what my options are and what I should ?

I guess it depends what outcome you want to seek. She has no legal authority on your child assuming you (as the father) are the legal guardian. You may want to do the same to her but at the end of the day bear in mind that the relationship has ended and you need to move on with your daughter elsewhere.

Thanks for the replies. The woman in question is the mother of my daughter, my other 2 children life with there mother. I realise I will have to move out, and although I want to move out, at this moment I don't not have the finances to do so. So it puts me in quite a position.

Is it me that's confused or you?
