What do older unmarried couples call each other?
“Partner” is the most generically accepted term, and seemed fine for most, but feels, well, generic.
Is my ex partner entitled to half my house?
Both you and your spouse or ex-partner are entitled to live in your home after separation regardless of whose name is on the rental agreement or the title of the property. You cannot be forced to leave just because the property is not in your name, unless the Court orders it.
Can I make my ex partner sell our house?
If you and your ex own a home that is in both of your names, they cannot legally force you to sell the house. Your ex can try to force you out of the home, but they cannot legally. Until the divorce is finalised, you both have the right to remain in the home. Once you are officially divorced you may decide to sell.
How do I get my ex wife out of my house?
You usually do this by filing a quitclaim deed, in which your ex-spouse gives up all rights to the property. Your ex should sign the quitclaim deed in front of a notary. One this document is notarized, you file it with the county. This publicly removes the former partner’s name from the property deed and the mortgage.
