Can I force the sale of our house if it was awarded to my husband during our divorce settlement?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Anne Barbara Howard (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Anne B. Howard, A Professional Law Corporation
If he was given the house in the divorce you can't force a sale. Check your divorce papers to see if there's anything you can do if he's late. If the loans Changed check to see if he took your name off it. Doesn't make sense to have your name on the new loan without your signature If you are not on the new loan he shouldn't be able to affect your credit. Check to make sure you are off the HOA.

How long do I have to pay alimony in NJ

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
How long you have to pay alimony is made up of a few different factors like how much each party earned, or is earning, how long was the marriage, are there children, etc.  Sometimes there is limited duration alimony like only a few years, if the marriage was short and both parties have earning potential there might not be any alimony.  Also you can negotiate a deal to divide assets in a certain was to avoid any alimony.

You will go through the divorce at a disadvantage. Her lawyer has no legal obligation to be fair to you and the judge will not get involved.
