Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania
Property
I'm considering divorcing my husband. If I leave our home, which is in both names, prior to filing for divorce do I forfiet my rights to procedes of the home and it's contents? Do I have to file first then leave. What are my options. I don't want to file and have to live with him till I find new quarters due to his verbal & mental abuse. I have two adult childre (19 & 21) that will have to put up with it also.

Re: Property
You will not lose your right to the proceeds if you leave and you do not have to file for divorce first.
