Knoxville, TN asked in Divorce for Tennessee

Q: Hi. My ex husband gave me a car in credit as a gift , which he is still paying for and willing to pay after divorce.

Is there any legal agreement between us that even after divorce he pays for it, and after that it's paid for it, the title is on my name. Thank you

A: Your divorce IS a legal agreement ( whether you both signed or whether you went to court and the Judge made a decision for you). If you are not yet divorced, you can put the terms for you to get the car and for him to pay for it in a "marital dissolution agreement" - along with other terms for the divorce. Your question isn't clear about your status, but what you are requesting is common and can probably be done. You best bet is to consult an experienced lawyer.
