If you are actually an owner, then confirm it by searching the title. You may have to sue any new grantees. Husband's alienation of marital property should be brought up in the Divorce, possibly as grounds for contempt. Someone has to pay taxes and any note debt.
He refused to sell or refinance the house at the time of the divorce. Now his plan is to stop paying the mortgage but continue to live in the house for a few months then move to another state. Is there anything I can do in this situation?

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing a difficult situation. To pursue full custody, your father would typically need to file a custody petition with the appropriate court in North Carolina. The court will consider various factors, including the best interests of the child, when... View More

Without seeing the deed it is hard to know for sure, but he does not likely have any real claim to it.
Generally speaking, should you die before him, he can assert some claims under NC law and he would have to sign any deed should you sell the property. And in a divorce, his claims would... View More

In North Carolina, when a woman gives birth to a child while married to a man, the man is legally the father of the child. It doesn't matter that the man and the woman are separated, only whether they were legally married. A man who doesn't believe he is the biological father of the child... View More
My husband filed for the divorce and originally I did not contest it. A court date was scheduled for January 31,2022 and the divorce was not granted because I was not properly served. I now feel like I should contest the divorce, but I don’t know if I still have the opportunity to.

It requires that only one party needs to have had the intent to live separate and apart. To contest the divorce you would need to show you have not lived separate and... View More
Wife discovered she is gay. She has a girlfriend and wants to divorce. We have three kids. I understand and am fine paying the child support. However, am I obligated to pay spousal support?

It all depends on a lot of factors. Based on the facts you've given, the answer is not a definite YES or NO.

Seems like the answer could depend on when the business entity (if there is one) was actually formed. If it wasn't formed (created) with the Secretary of State until after you separated, then there is an argument that the business wasn't marital. However, if that is the case, then you... View More

Until the divorce is finalized your wife has an interest in the property and would have to sign any deed.
we’ve been separated 12 years. not divorced. she went to the registrar of deeds with a new deed with his and her name on it. my name is there without a signature. they recorded it. is it legal? did i lose my land?
answered on Sep 23, 2022
I would have to review the deed. He may have just conveyed his portion, but if he also tried to convey your portion then fraud was committed, and you should contact the local law enforcement.
My spouse and I have been separated for 2 years, can I get a court order for child support for our 4 year old child without applying for a divorce?
answered on Sep 12, 2022
Sure. There is no requirement that both actions are handled together. However, I do question why you haven't been divorced yet. Many family law attorneys offer a "flat-fee" divorce package that isn't too expensive. Alternatively, you can attempt to file it yourself.
We bought a home for cash in NC 7 years ago with proceeds from sale of home in VA, paid off by my husband’s parents estate. Separated since January when I left for a job across the country.

I would need to review the deed to the house to give a definite answer.
However, it is likely that the house is in both your names and you and he own it as tenants in common. He is allowed to live there rent-free, but he is responsible for 50% of all expenses, taxes, utilities, hoa fees,... View More

Wouldn't be great, but it largely depends on what claims are being raised, and on additional facts (how long have you been separated, did you know this person before you separated). If there is some suspicion that you were being unfaithful on your spouse, this new person moving in will... View More

You can do it anytime - if the parties agree then it is the best practice to go ahead and get the full agreement in writing and have it formally executed (a Separation Agreement). Then you can just wait for the one year and someone can file for divorce.
Or do I serve him with court documents for a Uncontested Divorce?
answered on Jun 3, 2022
I typically attach a copy of the separation agreement at the end of the initial divorce filings as an FYI. However, most separation agreements are private contracts between the spouses that do not involve the court directly. That is, unless your agreement requires "incorporation" or the... View More
