Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
Financial Question
My friends wife is planning on buying a house but not allowing him to live there. Is he responsible of any financial issues that may arise since he is not living on the premises? They do have a son together but have not lived together for 5 years. I keep telling him to divorce her but he thinks it is cheaper to keep her.

Re: Financial Question
Hello. Assuming your friend's name is not on the mortgage, he should be in the clear in terms of any financial
issues that may arise in regard to this home. However, while he is married to his wife, anything she does
financially can ultimately affect him.
Will be happy to discuss this further and in more detail.
