Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

If you did not transfer the house into joint names during the marriage, then generally speaking he has no claim to the house or a share of the equity; however, if community funds (e.g. income during the marriage) was used to make mortgage payments, he may be entitled to receive reimbursement for a portion of those funds. I recommend you speak with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.

SO long as you did not sign anything giving him an interest, he is mistaken.

We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options for your divorce matter. This is obviously a very important matter, and you should not go in alone.
