The police should have put him out. Now, she needs to file for divorce to avoid further encounters. She should be awarded the house in a divorce. For more info, please contact my office at (248)851-3171.

She'll be able to get back in but better get a good domestic relations lawyer. Perhaps her family could help her out with the finances to get her out of this mess, for her sake and the sake of the grandchildren. William S. Stern 248-353-9400
