Q: Getting a divorce my wife wants to sign over the home to her daughter can she do this without my consent
There's also a handicapped boy she has custody of she wants to leave him with her daughter army home
A: No, she can not transfer the title to the home to a third party absent your consent if you are both on the deed. Once your divorce is filed, a standing order issues in most counties which will prohibit any transfers of property until the divorce is final.
A: Neither party can transfer ownership to a third party that is in both your names. And anything she gets rid of prior to the filing of a divorce, if it was considered marital property, she may have to account for that at a later date.
