Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania
I seem to be getting a lot of different answers to a question and I am getting concerned. My boyfriend and I have been together 15 years and have two children together. We own a property together and are both on the deed. However, he owns 80% and I only own 20%, all because his parents wanted him to be in the "drivers seat" and "paid off" the rest of the home, giving him the 80% equity share. This man does not work, and is paranoid that since I am 53 years old, my working days could be coming to an end and he may actually have to get up and get a job. As a result, he told me he intends to have me evicted from the residence. According to the attorneys in Pennsylvania, he is able to do this without "buying me out". Also, he doesn't want HIS/OUR children. He wants t hem out as well so he can pursue a younger woman to take care of him. I can't believe this is legal, but in Pennsylvania, these laws are ridiculous. I lived in Chicago for 35 years and NEVER were you able to put someone on the street because you owned a larger share of the house then them. And saying you want your kids, ages 13 and 14 evicted because you are "tired of being a father", you would be charged with neglect. Can someone clear this up for me??

First to "evict" you he can't he would have to file an action to queit title. In which case he would have to pay Next if the children are under 18 he will owe child support. Unless he can prove he can't which would require him to apply for Social Security Disability. If he gets that then the child under 18 would be entitle to disability payments as well.
Finally I don't care what he claims a lawyer said unless it in wrting and on a lawyers letter head it's bull.
That said I'd start talking to a real live lawyer.
