Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
My wife & I are seperated & getting a divorce. Am I required to pay for her vehicle insurance even though she's living somewhere else? What if her new boyfriend is driving my car?

Unless there is a court order requiring it, I cannot see how you would be required to pay for her insurance. However, if your wife and her boyfriend are driving your car, you would be responsible for any accidents or property damaged caused by use of the car. So, if they are driving a car you own, it would be a very bad economic decision not to have the car insured.

I agree with Tom. You do not want possible liability exposure if she or her boyfriend are in an accident.
