Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts
legal responsibility for bills
My husaband left me and has moved into his girlfriend's house taking all of his belongings, including furniture and has his mail going to her house.
Am I legally responsible for any bills in his name and, especially at his age-65, any medical bills he might incur including a nursing home?

Re: legal responsibility for bills
You could be since you are still married. You need to go to Court & file for either legal separation or divorce -- RIGHT AWAY. Also make sure that you liquidate any accounts in both of your names, and put everything you can in your name.
