Re: property settlement

If you did improvements on the house, you would most likely be entitled to a piece. However, if you simply lived in it, forget it. You won't get a piece of it. How did you refinance if the other relatives didn't sign off? It really doesn't matter whose name is on the title in determining property results in divorce cases anyway. Bill Stern 248-353-9400
