Who owns the house

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
The property and the children are two different matters. The divorce decree governs on both issues, but you will notice that the house is in one seciton fo the decree and the children are in a totally different section. If you got the house in the decree, the house is yours. A later agreement about the house is not enforceable. He would need to file some type of modification to change the propery division concerning the house. As to your possession and access to the children, that should be enforced through a suit to enforce access and possession. It's a totally separate issue than the house. If your ex-husband has engaged in parental alienation, that should be addressed with the Court as well.

Does wife have any legal right to the car that I bought while we were separated?

Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Yes, any property your purchased while legally married (even if separated) is community property and therefore jointly owned by you and your wife. The exception to this rule is if you executed a prenuptial or post marital agreement wherein you decided that what you buy belongs exclusively to you and what she buys is exclusively her separate property. Contact a family lawyer in your area to start the divorce process so there is no confusion about the division of assets in your marriage.
