If my name is not on the title, does that mean I do not own the house?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Texas is a community property state. Although your name is not on the deed, any property purchased during your marriage is considered community property. This means that the house and the mortgage loan are both owned by you and your husband equally.

Can my husband's ex-wife be responsible for paying school loans although divorce is over with?

Answered by attorney Andrew M. Lloyd
Divorce lawyer at Lloyd Associates, PLLC
It is a difficult question to answer without seeing the decree, but most attorneys make sure that the final decree disposes of ALL property, whether stated or not.  It may well be, however, that your decree has some language regarding any assets not disclosed can be re-allocated.  If that is the case, it would be worthwhile to pursue.  However, again, usually the decree simply states Wife take all 'other' debt in her name and Husband take all 'other' debt in his name.  This type of blanket language is generally sufficient to negate any motion for new trial or attempt to bring the case back before the court on a property distribution argument.  Again, this will depend largely upon the lieral wording of your decree.  Find an attorney local in your area and ask that they quickly look at it.  Takes about 10 minutes.

Is it illegal to list a house behind spouses back?

The divorce orders probably served to transfer title from her to him. I suggest hiring a lawyer to review the orders.
