Question:
My name isn't on the marital home mortgage since my wife owned it before we were married, but I have contributed substantial time and money in renovating the house and other home improvement projects.
Do I have a claim to any financial interest in the home given the upgrades that I either performed myself or helped pay for?
Question:
Once the divorce process is commenced, how is it decided which spouse gets to remain in the marital home?
Question:
In my divorce I was ordered to pay half the mortgage until the marital home is sold.
However, my ex-wife, who is living in the home, has showed no motivation for selling the house and is not maintaining the exterior so it even looks like a valuable property.
I am trying to understand how to get out from paying the mortgage on a house that is under water and will not sell any time soon due to my ex-wife's lethargy.
What are possible legal ramifications if I quit paying my half of the mortgage in order to force her to sell the marital home?
Question:
I am in the process of building and purchasing my first home and would like to know how to protect this property from my wife before my purchase is finalized in the event we divorce.
We are both close to calling it quits, so I don't want her to just wait until I have bought the home so she could claim the house is marital property when we divorce.
What can I do to protect my home from my wife should she decide to divorce me after I made the purchase?
