Soldotna, AK asked in Divorce and Real Estate Law for Alaska

Q: How do I remove my girlfriend from the deed to our house we bought together?

We bought it together, money may have come from both accounts, but it all originated from my paychecks, as she made next to nothing during that time, and continued to make next to nothing until very recently. We don’t want to live together, and neither of us are willing to leave. Obviously this mutual exclusivity has to end some how, and I assume neither of us will be amicable and leave cooperatively and only if court ordered. I understand it’ll go to court and a judge will decide who will be removed and who will stay. I’m curious as to what he’ll base his judgement off of, and what all potential outcomes are if neither of us decides to cooperate.
