    That's not as easy to do as she thinks it is, and maybe she should take advice on that.

    The only difference it would make if you owned a house jointly with her is that it would give the creditor another way to enforce the debt - a ccj followed by a charging order.

    I'm still struggling to understand the 14k debt.

    Have you got any access to legal advice through work or another insurance product?

    I don't have access to any free legal advice.

    I am thinking off booking some time and paying a solicitor. I'm unsure what type of law this falls under.

    I've messaged a few people on here. Who have gone through similar, if not the same problem. No reply yet.

    There seems to be a few cases of this on the internet. But there is no conclusion. Which makes me think they must have paid at the end

    But my current insurance will not pay towards it. I called and they have confirmed this.

    It will only be your current insurers if they were your insurers at the time of the accident. Were they?
    Unlike some here, I am not omniscient. If I am wrong correct me. I won't take offence.

    The law is like an ocean - have a swim but don't drown.
