Hi Folks, i split from my wife in 2014. In 2017 I bought a property in my name solely. I’m now looking a divorce. Would she be entitled to any equity from the property? |

Legally you were still married when you bought the property so she does have a potential claim but court will look at all other aspects.. it’s not a simple 50/50
Good luck |

not really discussed it. I’m afraid to bring it up as she may then see the £ signs. We get on ok. I just don’t think It’s right she could get 50% as it was my deposit and I’m paying mortgage |

If you split in 2014 and you bought the house in 2017 then doesn't the 3 year separation rule mean you're effectively both independent of each other anyway? |

I thought each partner kept their seperate property and the family home was up for split along with any other property bought jointly during co-habiting period?

Is this known from experience? I thought he may be ok, not keep all of the equity but pretty much most of it due to the 3 year separation.
If solicitors get involved they will however seek all financial disclosure including savings, investments, pensions, debts etc. Which could potentially be split equally.
Again I'm uncertain due to the length of time separated before your investment |

True that.
I had good advice from people privately that were not involved in my situation, but not publicly like this. Best keep the specifics more private to people you trust |

"Yes. The fab forum is where I'd look for legal advice too "
Everyone is just GUESSING and they all think they're right.
The following is NOT a guess:
A divorce is a contentious issue. It is contentious because the parties rarely agree & force a third party (a judge) to decide for them.
I'm sure some judges do read this forum but I can promise you that their opinion will NOT be enforceable in a Court.
If you can't agree, then you will have to go to an FDR hearing (Financial Dispute Resolution) & if you still can't agree you will have to let a judge decide for you, taking into account ALL the facts of the case.
Broadcasting details in a public domain prior to any hearing is unlikely to do anyone any favours, though-just saying... |

"Legally you were still married when you bought the property so she does have a potential claim but court will look at all other aspects.. it’s not a simple 50/50
Good luck I don’t want it to go to court
What does your wife say? not really discussed it. I’m afraid to bring it up as she may then see the £ signs. We get on ok. I just don’t think It’s right she could get 50% as it was my deposit and I’m paying mortgage
It won’t be 50% for sure.. is she self sufficient? define self sufficent? Lol she works as do I. Since the day and hour we split I’ve paid her direct via bank account based on CSA calculator.
My ex paid me via csa £40 per week based on their calculations! Yet he was a director of a LTD company and earned in excess of 50k plus!! Go work that out That’s cause your ex lied! I was director of a ltd company earning £60k per year and I paid my ex on my weekly earnings. I could have fiddled it but I never "
Obviously you have a conciseness, my ex didn’t. It was his business he employed 7 people , yet because it’s a ltd company the CSA can’t do frig all! According to them he earned a wage as a director. |

Probably on the same side when it comes to greed and parental responsibility |

"Yes. The fab forum is where I'd look for legal advice too
Everyone is just GUESSING and they all think they're right.
The following is NOT a guess:
A divorce is a contentious issue. It is contentious because the parties rarely agree & force a third party (a judge) to decide for them.
I'm sure some judges do read this forum but I can promise you that their opinion will NOT be enforceable in a Court.
If you can't agree, then you will have to go to an FDR hearing (Financial Dispute Resolution) & if you still can't agree you will have to let a judge decide for you, taking into account ALL the facts of the case.
Broadcasting details in a public domain prior to any hearing is unlikely to do anyone any favours, though-just saying..."

If you win the lottery, even several years after your divorce she could still claim part of it. She may not get anything awarded, but the claim would be legal. |

"Hi Folks, i split from my wife in 2014. In 2017 I bought a property in my name solely. I’m now looking a divorce. Would she be entitled to any equity from the property?"
Can you provide evidence that you were not a couple in 2017? Not living together etc? |

It’s a mind field and there’s lots of loops and holes. It’s not as straight forward. I was with my ex 15 yrs had 2 children we had 3 property’s together but 2 business properties in HIS business name yet they were bought through one of our houses being re-mortgaged, it’s not straight forward sometimes.

Legally it will depend on whether the property was purchased using what would be considered ‘joint assets’ ie funds that are the subject of the divorce settlement. Alternatively whether the income that has paid for the purchase can be attributed in anyway to her contribution, financial or otherwise, to your earning ability such as you building up a business whilst she assisted in the business or was substantially responsible for your home life and / or responsible for any children.
Put simply, it will depend on whether a court considers that she made a contribution to the purchase of the current property whether straightforwardly financial or otherwise regardless of when that contribution may have occurred. |

"Hi Folks, i split from my wife in 2014. In 2017 I bought a property in my name solely. I’m now looking a divorce. Would she be entitled to any equity from the property?
Can you provide evidence that you were not a couple in 2017? Not living together etc? yes. The fact I make payments to her bank account weekly titled “csa payments” and that we live at 2 separate address
Then in my experience she’s not entitled to anything from that property, but I’d go and seek advice. I’ve been there done that. Good luck
OMG...this is so wrong
Why do people give unqualified opinions & then say 'but go & get advice' ?
Its just irresponsible people
Is that directed to me? I’m just saying my experience, sorry if that offends you
You obviously don't need to apologise to me as your experiences won't affect me at all. My comments are aimed at anyone who isn't a Matrimonial Lawyer or Barrister who feels qualified to offer the OP their wonderful opinion on this complex legal issue. "

"People never get married!
Too late! Good advice in the modern world
New law - if you live with your unmarried partner they have the same claim over your assets as married partners
No they don’t!
If they did I’d be a millionaire - as it is I just get maintenance! There is no such thing as the legal rights of a ‘common law’ wife - however long you’re together - even if you give up work to look after the kids 24/7 so your partner can work to build up a business!
When did you separate?
Six years ago! We were never married but were together 11 years and engaged for about 8 years! "
I did say, new law |

Oh & by the way...it is a criminal offence to offer legal advice when you are unqualified to do so...this is whether it is or is not intended to be relied upon.
So, yes, not just irresponsible people.... |

I’ve had a similar first hand experience and he’s asked for opinions, sorry I didn’t know you had to be qualified to respond
You don’t have to be qualified but it helps
Yes obviously it does. But if someone posts a question in here it’s only asking for people’s experiences, there obviously not going to quote in a court of law Julie from Fabs swingers said this or that. Jeeeeez
Yes but with all due respect your advice was shit "
Maybe because I didn’t give any  |

My brother bought a house, then he paid half again to a girlfriend. Few years later he paid half again to first wife, few years later he paid half again to second wife...
Spend a few hundred on real legal advice, or you may be giving the keys to your ex and paying off the mortgage while living in a shoebox in the middle of t' road. |

Yes, so caring that they are prepared to risk absolutely nothing whilst giving out opinions which are wrong & could have very detrimental consequences for the OP if he thinks they sound credible.
Whether you can bear to hear it or not, that's the bottom line here.

That is just silly talk, OP was not seeking legal advice, just opinions. Police officers often say things like oi, robbing that bank is against the law, don't know of any bank robbers who have countered "But you are not qualified to give that advice, please arrest yourself for your criminal offence" |

most fundamental aspects |
I’m not sure why I chose this thread to contribute to after my short hiatus from the forum. Anyway....
Firstly the CSA as such no longer exists. There are a number of schemes ranging from joint agreements through to legally binding ones involving children. A “child” can still be regarded as a child if they are up to 19 and in full time non advanced education. So there is a responsibility to pay even if they are older and at a college but not if it’s an advanced course such as a degree.
With assets, it would not matter if you had sold the house then spent the money. If you were deemed to be owe that money, you could be pursued for it. If it was found that you deliberately deprived yourself of that money, then it would be looked at with a dim view.
There are so many variables in your case. If it were man - woman, no property, no kids, it would be much easier (and cheaper) to arrange a divorce. Those two factors are unsurprisingly very common in divorces.
Also. If someone has stumbled upon this thread from a google search, I would recommend they retype fab as cab |

This is my understanding too, because they may longer be regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
However, nobody on this thread has willfully been passing themselves off as a Solicitor, merely giving their opinion, or their own experience.
The OP has clearly stated that he is taking independent legal advice, he was just chewing the cud on here.

Get a GOOD solicitor
I bought my house, then met my ex, moved in, married, we later split.
His name never on the mortgage.
He had debts, I knew nothing about but acquired while we were married.
He claimed 50% of the house in the divorce, but his debtors were already filing on the property.
I lost everything.
I now know I had a bad solicitor. |

I always thought until a financial order is made then everything is up for grabs, ie both have to declare what you have to be divided up. It doesn't mean it will be 50/50...other things get taken into account ie kids under 18 and pensions etc |

I did this and also dividends but his company was exempt to them divulging certain information due to small business act or something similar. He own a ltd accountancy company and is crafty with money. X |

I left my husband and only took a fraction of the equity to buy a new house. He remortgaged and his mortgage company informed me I had five years to make a claim against the house. I didn't as I trusted him to give me the rest of the money especially as I left everything. All was on track until I met my new partner and he decided to give me fuck all.
Annoying thing my current partner who is not my husband is entitled to my stuff. My lawyers say he's a dependent because I cover most things and it'll be the devils own job to get rid of him. Funny, I can chuck out my adult kids, no problem, but a partner, whether they contribute or not...fat chance.

"No .... i very much doubt it, if it has never been a ‘matrimonial’ home.
Seek a consultation from a family solicitor to be sure. my solicitor is saying her view is I will have to pay something. But that’s only after a phone call. I’ve to go see my solicitor face to face next week "
Good idea, every case is individual and your solicitor will be able to make things clearer, once they have all the facts, in my experience, I think she will be entitled to something..When I was getting divorced my solicitor told me I could claim some of ex husband's pension, when he claimed it, I didn't think that would be fair on him..it's a minefield! |

Not read all the posts so not sure if it has been mentioned. Even if divorced ex can come back for money.
Money payments for children are separate and do not count in a separation between couples.
Once divorced you need to gain a financial separation (settlement) which will end any future claims against each other. This however maybe challenged at a later date, hence Ray Parlour divorce.
Getting a financial settlement is very important after a divorce.
Going back to your question yes your wife is entitled to what you have, as you say you are not divorced. If you were divorced but not had a financial settlement (this is were you both agree no further claims on each other, could be called financial break) then again your ex wife can come back for further money |

If you split in 2014 and you bought the house in 2017 then doesn't the 3 year separation rule mean you're effectively both independent of each other anyway?"
There is no 3 yr separation rule....
Its either 2 yrs or 5yrs |

"I always thought until a financial order is made then everything is up for grabs, ie both have to declare what you have to be divided up. It doesn't mean it will be 50/50...other things get taken into account ie kids under 18 and pensions etc"

Go and see your solicitor, most give a session for free, and see a family law specialist.
If you paid a deposit from savings accrued in the marriage, then yes, a proportion.
But, go see a family law specialist, and take thier advice, and sort it out.
Then you can sleep soundly. |
