Putting a charge on a property

[GodalmingGir]

Who do I write to in order to put a charge on a property also does this have to be a legal document?

Why do you want to put a charge on a property? It is a legal order applied for through the courts.

I am owed over �35,000 pounds in child maintenance ( court order is still in situ)by my ex-husband who has just died. I have not put a charge on this property before as I did not realise I could do this. Moreover I have not pursued him for the money as he was made bankrupt and has been in extremely poor health both physically and mentally. Do I need to get a solicitor to draw this up?

yes,go to a solicitor,you cant do it on your own.

Can I put a charge on a companies property that has a debenture on it by the bank. I want to put a charge against the company as it owes me money and is about to go out of business?

Hi I purchased a property in early 2006 and then had the deeds changed to my son's name. He then met a young lady in late 2006 and moved in and subsequently they married in 2013. Sadly in Jan 2016 they split up. During the whole time she lived there no rent or monies were paid towards the property. I was wondering if I could now place a charge on the property so as to retrieve the purchase price if she decides to go down the route of 50/50 split on divorce.
