I was married for a year and a half, been separted a little more then a year. My ex says Im not entitled to anything because his fathers name is on the house papers. His dad was on the papers because he wasnt working for a full year and needed someone to say if he couldnt pay for the house his dad would. When I left, he didnt give me or let me take any money out of our account. I only had $5.00 with me. He changed the locks so I couldnt get the rest of my stuff. I still have things in the home which he is going to sell and keep the money. But I asked someone to get for me and no one answers the door. He wants me to sell my car so I can give him half of the money. He doesnt drive, his name isnt on the car, I bought the car when we were dating. We havent started on the papers cause he says he has no money. He didnt let me talk to my friends & family and told a family member he wished he met her then me. I've moved on and Im super happy. I made a mistake and I learned from it.

He took my name off our account so I wasnt able to get any money.
I had nothing when I left. I had to start all over again.

yes--you are entitled to half ---half of everything that you both aquired after you wre married---he gets nothing you had before the marriage--you get nothing he had before the marriage-----you can legally get your belongings out of the house---it;s the law---so go to the law---or a legal advisor or lawyer

If the house is in his fathers name, then u wouldnt be entitled to any of that, now if u and your husband were on the house and he just co-signed for it, then possibly but u'd have to check with a lawyer to make sure. I dont understand the "he didnt give me or let me have any money" .. did u have a joint account? if so then there shouldnt of be any let or give, ur entitled to one half of what was in the bank at that time...as far as your belongings, id make a list of everything u can remember that u wanted, if he sells these items the judge could very well make him pay u money for the items he sells, ur entitled to half of whats in ur home..and he's digging himself into a hole not letting u get ur stuff and selling it off..etc..depending on what state u live in, its very possible that he could have to pay u alimony, but with only being married a short time probably unlikely or if so it wont be much.. If i were u id go ahead and start the proceedings for the divorce before he finds away to liquidate everything and hide any proof of it exsisting..

Ex is wrong- unless you were renting, the house is community property, get a lawyer fast before the house is sold out from under you. your car might also be comm. prop. so be prepared.
Access to your stuff is a right. if he sells your stuff he could face theft charges. Your court house, womans center, may have pamphlets givivg some divorce advice. Some lawyers do pro bono work ( for free) You are entitled to 1/2 of the bank account and 1/2 the bills maybe 1/2 his pension benifits and more

I think you are entitled to half. You should retain a lawyer that only gets paid after you get your share of the settlement. The police can also help you to go in and get the things you need from your former residence. Good luck to you and I wish you a happy future.

Yes, you're entitled to half unless you signed a pre-nup. Get a good divorce attorney, and you could get even more than that. Although, since you're still legally married, he owns half of what you own now as well. Call a few attorneys and ask for advice.

You are entitled to your stuff, contact the police and have the escort you over there while you get your stuff. Do not give him a heads up that you are coming or he could get rid of your stuff. why did you wait for so long to retrieve your stuff? You should be glad to be rid of him. You don't want half of what he has only your stuff. Good luck

You need to hire an attorney and let your ex know you're not playing this game with him.
