Re: Home in divorce
In what context? Are you in a divorce? If the divorce is final, then whatever the Decree says controls. The position of husband's name on the deed does not control his share of the ownership.

A Quitclaim will give you full interest in the house. However, if there is a loan on the house in your husbands name, a quitclaim will not relieve him of the mortgage responsibility.
