Re: House/divorce
From the family law (divorce) perspective, you have basically the same rights whether your name is on the Deed or not. If it's titled solely in his name, it can still be a marital asset and allocated as such. Of course, you are somewhat safer with your name being on it, as he could not transfer it without your knowledge if it is.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case. If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
