Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts
im going through a divorce and in the divorce agreement we agreed that he needs to remove in one year my name from the house mortgage. What happens if he doesnt follow the agreement and what can i do if he doesnt? In my worst moment of the relationship i felt pressured to sign a paper where it say that im not responsable of that house and that i wont receive anything from it? How valid is that? If we sell the house bcs of that paper i wont receive my part. I have two kids and he moved back to PR.

You should have an attorney review the separation agreement before you sign anything else. You will live with this agreement for a long time, and it sounds as though substantial property interests may be at stake. I would address your earlier written 'waiver' in the separation agreement, to avoid any confusion later. If a party to the separation agreement fails to do something they promised to do in the separation agreement, you can go back to the court and enforce the agreement.
