Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
Ex-wife defaulting on car loan
My husband's ex wife was ordered by the divorce judge in August of 2005 to be financially responsible for her vehicle which is still in my husband's name, she is the co-signer. She has refused to refinance to put it in her name only. The title states his name ''or'' her name. She has not made a payment since July of 2004 and payments since that time have been taken from either my husband's checking account or line of credit through the bank that financed the vehicle, accounts the bank will not let him close because of the car loan. She is receiving nearly $2500 per month in child support and alimony, while pregnant and co-habitating with another man. She also has a job and can definitely afford the monthly payment but is choosing not to pay. We want to take the vehicle since we are paying for it and it is technically my husband's car according to the title. Can we legally do this? If we wanted to sue to recover what we've paid, what type of attorney would we need and how would we go about this? I'm not sure what this falls under. Thanks.

Your husband has many rights that are being violated at this time, he needs a good attorney right away. We do practice in Duval, St. Johns, Nassau, Columbia, and Clay counties. He has quite a few options available to him at this time but time is always of the essence in these matters.
