Divorce Advice
I’m a third party in this situation, my fiancee and his current wife have been separated for two years. They are still going through the divorce paperwork, etc. They bought a house two and a half years ago, (she lived in the house for about 6 months). He would like to keep the house, she moved out at the beginning of the separation period. He asked her to sign a quit claim deed and she refused stating that it would stay on her credit. Can he refinance the home in means of removing her name but take no cash back – only refinance for the amount due on the home? Is this something that needs to go through their attorney or can they do it on their own with the mortgage lender? What exactly is a quit claim deed? I know that I’m being selfish but before I join this circus, (I have never been married), I just want to know what I am getting into. I don’t want him to refinance the home for any extra money, which I’m assuming that she would receive half and I end up on the mortage making payments on money that she received.

Rights in Marital Separation and Divorce
I am currently in a trial separation from my wife and I have numerous issues with her activities. I concerned as to whether she has a legal right to deny me access to my own home (we are joint owners of the home) preventing me from speaking to my children, disposing of my householed possessions, taking the children for extended leaves without my authorization, driving under the influence of alcohol with my children in the car along with other activities too numerous to mention. My primary concern is that our home is currently for sale and my realtor advised me that my wife stated she has a ”quit claim deed” and she is the sole owner of the home. I never did nor will I ever sign such a document or give any form of permission whatsoever to sign over my interest in the home. I’m understandably very concerned that she could fraudulently sell my home and contents under her name which would leave me with nothing. Please advise what actions should be taken to protect my legal rights. ALSO, ARE THERE ANY ATTORNEYS IN THE KISSIMMEE AREA WHO ARE PROACTIVE FOR HUSBAND’S AND FATHER’ RIGHTS WHO PROVIDE A FREE CONSULTATION. Thank you for a speedy response.
Credit Card?
Credit Card?
”He” was directed by the court to pay a credit card that happened to be in my name only(he is authorized user). He has charged ten thousand more dollars on the card. I was told by the credit card company there is nothing I can do except close the account so he can’t charge more, and they aren’t bound by the divorce decree, therefore I am still responsible for the debt. ”He” wrote me a letter and said he is not making another payment and that he intends to run my credit in the toilet. Please, is there something, anything, I can do not to have this over my head. Had I known any better, I would have ask that it was part of the divorce for him to put the account in his name before I ever signed a quit claim deed. Can someone please help me?

Real Estate Property Division
My soon be EX was removed from the house for Domestic Violance on May 15, 1999. I file for divorce on June25, 1999. I have restraining order against him for myself and my children. He gave up him visitation rights and any type of a custody. Since May 15, 1999 I am paying two mortgages for the house by myself. He would not let me refinance the house. I have mitigated loan payments with the mortgage company, he would not sign documents that he agree for mitigation. I am paying very large payments because I have an adjustable mortgage. I ask Court several time to give me Quit Claim Deed signed by Court Clerk, they did not do it, telling that we have to settle between us.
My first question is: Since I paid for the house by myself for over three (3) years, the amount I paid exseeds $80,000.00, plus $30,000.00 of a downpayment came out of the personal injury accident of my parents and myself, am I in title for the equity on the house(Our outstanding Mortgages are about $250,000.00 not a pay-off and we could sell this house according to sales in the area for about $305,000.00 to $325,000.00)?
I would appreciate your quick response. Sincerely, Olga

custody/living will
I have full custody of my 6 year old daughter. If I make a living will specifying who I want to raise her in the event of my death, will that be enough? I do not want it to be her father! (At this point I want it to be my parents in another state- we lived w/ them for her 1st 2 yrs)
Situation details:
-Dad signed away rights in ’02 (at 3 mos old).
-He has legal issues w/ 3+ DUIs
-He has seen her only 1x in the past 1.5yrs. I had allowed it at first (supervised) – not now because he lied to her & would diappear for months at a time. He has broken her heart.
-He pays child support through the Dept of Rev (taken directly from his employer).
-We lived as a family for a ttl of 3 months in ’04 (tried to reconcile & found out he is an alcoholic).
I want to make sure that my daughter will be raised in the same loving/nuturing environment that I feel I provide for her. She deserves nothing less. Since he gave away his right already, does that negate his option to try to ‘get’ her if I pass? Could he fight my parents for her and have a leg to stand on?
