Bankruptcy

TeehiVob

Hi, looking for some guidance here as it's been a horrible year, my husband was made bankrupt this year by local authority for business rates, OR promised to keep in house but suddenly passed to Insolvency Practiitioner who are chasing c£180k and increasing because our home is in my husband sole name. Simply a matter of family dynamic. I have put my all in our home and it would seem my solicitor is claiming i need to dig out all information from 10 years back to show i contributed to any thing in the house. I pay bills and child care costs while hubby pay for mortage. Sadly he was declared bankrupt but didnt tell me before as i was very ill with covid at the time. Big issue and question is : how do i fight for my share of the property? my solicitor seem to be working for the IP rather than develop strong ideas to help resolve the issue and they charge a fortune. They insist i have little or no chance and because of the significant equity in the property the IP have suddenly moved from 45k to 180k within 3 months. My family and I are at brink of losing home and the last 10years worth of hard labour? Where do i seek guidance. Hubby is too depressed to take any action or fight.

This is really a matter for a solicitor, as its legal advice you need here.

I would suggest trying to find one who offers a free consultation, somewhere local to you.

Other than that, the only online help I can point you to, would be the "Legal Beagles" website, they may be able to advise you better on this matter.

How much equity is there in the property and how much was his bankruptcy debt?
