Divorce

[johnny37]

My daughter is involved in an acrimonious divorce. Both are living in the matrimonial home which is owned by and in her name. She bought the flat fourteen years ago and he moved in when they were married four years ago. He has his own flat owned jointly with his ex-wive which they rent out. The rent pays the mortgage but there must be some equity as they are selling. He is convinced (1) that his flat is irrelevant and (2) he is entitled to a percentage of the matrimonial home and has registered an interest with the land registry under the family law act 1996. There are no children. Would there be any point in my daughter registering an interest in his flat. I feel that in the circumstances as described any judge is unlikely to issue a financial judgement against either party. I have read some notes on the net and it appears he (the husband) has got to agree to it.

Far too complicated to sort out on here!
You need to get a solicitor on the case urgently!
Just one point that I am sure of , his flat is NOT irrelevant it is part of his assets
