Legal Question in Family Law in California
Financial Obligation
I borrowed $100,000 against my
house equity to get my son legal
assistance. I just received a refund of
$10,000 from the attorney for
monies not used, made payable to
me alone since I wrote them the
check from my personal account. My
ex-husband had to sign the loan
agreement because his name was on
the title. I pay 100% of the
payments myself. My ex-husband
pays zero. He wants 1/2 of the
refund. Do I have to give him 50%?
If I do have to give him 50%, and I
don't, what then? Thank you for
your assistance!

Re: Financial Obligation
The easiest solution is to put the refund against the loan against the house so both benefit. Other than that talk to an attorney as you situation seems unusual since your ex-husband's name is still on the house. Certainly, the money should not go to him. Pat McCrary
