Legal Question in Family Law in New York

Re: house ownership

YOU need to consult with a lawyer in advance of your marriage. You probably need a properly prepared document verifying and confirming your understanding and agreement respecting your separate property, notwithstanding your spouse's contribution to the marriage.

You should also discuss with your prospective, exactly what you want him to agree to, and all and any situation you can image that might change your current position and feeling about this and other marital property issues.

GOOD LUCK,

Re: house ownership

If the house is to be used as a marital home, it will be subject to distribution should the marriage dissolve, regardless of the name on the deed and who purchased the home. In order to protect yourself you should consider a prenuptual agreement which while not full proof offers more protection then just wishing for the best.
