Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
if my ex was awarded our home in the divorce, and years later the home was foreclosed, he never refi'd me off and now the bank is sending me threatening letters. can the bank legally come after me even though i have an executed divorce decree stating it was my ex husbands sole responsibility?

Yes. The divorce decree had no bearing on the lender.

yes the bank is not bound by the order in divorce court. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659. Maybe you can negotiate with the bank.
