You can indeed sue him, but not for all of his half. You can obtain his half, minus what was his net earnings up to the point of the divorce. In other words, if he had already earned 10,000 pounds when the two of you separated, that money is still his. You can't obtain that. But if his 'half' gained another 4,000 pounds after the separation, you can obtain that because he abandoned the property to you.

I don't know if it's always the same but my cousin and his wife split up about 12 years ago, 2 years ago his ex tried to claim for half of the house. She was awarded half of the value of the house at the time she left - which was about a tenth of its current value.
Hope this helps!

Sit on it ,but get a lawyer , and if you ever want to sell the place , you'll have some backing as to his not paying on it .
