Seperation house being built by my husbands business
My husband and I are seperated because of domestic abuse from him. He owns a home building business and is building our new home. We sold or other home and the kids and I are living in a very small place and most of my items are in storage. He wants to sell the house and if I want to purchase it he has put a very high price tag on it. He is only willing to give me 1/2 of the money we put into it. The profit of the sale of the house would belong to his business. He also informed me that if we divorce I do not have rights to his business since he started it before we were married. What options do I have for the house we are building - can he be required to sell it to me at the price we were to purchase it? If it sold would I be entitled to part of the profit. Can I keep him from selling the house. If we divorce, would a portion of his business go to me. It is an LLC.

Re: Seperation house being built by my husbands business
You need to hire an attorney and not rely on this type of forum as your issues are too complex. However, I will tell you that absent a written prenuptual agreement, your husband is wrong concerning the business.
