Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

maital rights to land property
My husband purchased property before we were married but he put me on the deed after we were married. He is now threatening to take my name off the deed. We are not getting a divorce, he just wants to take my name off the property so I have no legal rights to the property. Can he do this?

RESPONSE: You can be removed by a court or by properly having a deed executed with you sining it back to him. Otherwise, I do not know of another way that he can get you off of the deed. Good luck,
