Q: When getting a divorce and both parties names are on the deed can one them make the other one move out
We bought a double wide mobile home together and put it on my wife mother's property and now she wants me to leave and the mobile home is payed for can she force me to take the money she is offering
A: You made an improvement to someone else's real property. That is called a gift. Your lawyer can argue for an equitable distribution. It sounds like you are not on the deed. You might argue to move and sell the MH, but it probably will not be worth it. You might ask for alimony if wife makes alot of money.
