Question:
My wife and I are in the process of getting a divorce; she has moved out of the marital home 3 months ago, admits she has everything out of the house but comes as goes as she pleases in the house even when I am gone. Her lawyer tells her that if I change the locks, to break a window or whatever she has to in order to get in because she still owns part of the house. Can she legally do this?
Answer:
I am not licensed in Illinois. However, I recommend that you get a court order giving you temporary exclusive possession of the home. This will prevent her from legally returning to the home.
