Legal Question in Family Law in Australia
What rights do I have when our house is in my husband's name? We do have one child. Is there something in the law that I can stop him from selling our house without my permission? Can I keep the house till my daughter finishes high school so that it won't disrupt her schooling?

It will depend on your entitlement to property settlement. If you have a substantial entitlement, the house might be able to be transferred into your name. You ought to get advice from an accredited family law specialist like me, so that you know what your entitlements are.
Good luck!
