Legal Question in Family Law in New York
Wife sold property for a dollar.
To make a long story short I got a divorce 4 years ago without a lawyer. I stated that I would allow my ex to keep our marital residence for 7 years until our children were out of highschool. I called a realator yesterday and found out that she had sold the house and 57acres of land to our oldest daughter for a DOLLAR. Upon reading the divore decree closely it states the the residence was given to my ex for seven years on a quit claim deed but that she could sell to a third party in that time however, half of the proceeds were to be given to me. Is there anything that I can do?

Re: Wife sold property for a dollar.
This is a difficult situation. At the time what were the expectations at the 7 yr.mark?Was there a understanding to split alot of money upon the sale? How much is the property worth.Anyway if you want my help send me an e-mail with your phone # to call you later.
