She does not get on with partner...

Options
Friend cannot put up with her op rudeness and anger issues and not being more thoughtful anymore. They have teenager children toghether in teenager years now not married. He moved in to her house all those years ago and hardly worked or provided. Should he be owed anything on her house. Shes trying to avoid upsetting the children and tried to stay in it for as long as possible but thinks its becoming more unbearable now. He has nowhere to go (not that he had anywhere when he first came in). Any tips appreciated.

  • He should be entitled to part of equity in the house and other assets even if they are not married both legally and morally . Up to her to find out what approximate percentage by checking either with lawyers or online with more information provided and offer it to him in exchange for him moving out.
    The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
    Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.
  • Based on the very little information you've given - the boyfriend wouldn't be entitled to anything.
    If you want more information and are not prepared to give it on an anonymous forum like this then see the CAB for face to face advise.

  • The partner may be entitled to something, she would need to get proper advice for her own solicitor, providing more detail about the arrangements during the relationship.

    Staying together 'for the sake of the children' is unlikely to be helpful to her or to the children - leaving them in a stressful, high-tension situation isn't positive.
    All posts are my personal opinion, not formal advice Always get proper, professional advice (particularly about anything legal!)

    Even if he has not contributed (noting that unpaid work such as childcare or home improvements would count as contributions)?
  • They lived as one household for 10+ years. If roles were reversed would you expect a woman to move out with nothing ?
