If her name is on the deeds,then yes she is.Otherwise no.
You can get a solicitor to write a letter for you,asking her to remove her name from the mortgage etc.
I'm not sure of the cost though.

Did you own it before you met? Is it solely in your name? Then you have ggod grounds for saying no. Go and see a solicitor to verify this. By the way do you have a child? If so you are responsible for supporting it. If not it sounds like she might have married you with a hidden agenda. In which case ask the solicitor about applying for an annulment rather than a divorce.

Yep. I know in my state, the law reads (paraphrased, of course)
What's mine is mine.
What's his is mine.
What's ours is mine.
I looked it up shortly before my friend got married, because he was moving out of an apartment into her four bedroom house that her mom signed over to her. I wanted to make sure he couldn't marry her and force her to sell the house to liquidate it and divorce her. As it is, he has her convinced to sell the house and move into an apartment, and who knows where it will go after that, so maybe my suspicions weren't too far off....

This is weird, she is your wife but she never lived at your house. What kind of marriage is that? She gets half.

What a sorry, greedy woman. It still amazes me that people who loved one another can become like this. The laws on this vary. Do your research thoroughly before giving in to this. You don't deserve it.

Of course. Marriage is a legal contract.

It's part of the assets which you share. So yes, she can get claim part of its value in her settlement.

unless s you have a prenuptial agreement or similar such document, everything you own is half hers, doesn't matter if she doesn't even know you have it, the courts will find out and make it happen
