My ex wife has yet to refinace the house we once shared on a mortgage. But it states in the final decree for her to do so within three years

Cindy S. Vova
Answered by attorney Cindy S. Vova
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Cindy S. Vova, P.A.
  Your original divorce decree helps you.  You state that the final judgment provides that your ex must either refinance or sell... Now, I don't know if she's fallen behind, but if she has, it is unlikely that she would be able to refinance, so your desire to just "force" her to refinance may be impossible.  Remember, the bank has to decide this based on, among other factors, credit worthiness.  The bank was not part of your divorce, so you can't force the bank to refinance the mortgage.   You can go to court to enforce the judgement and compel her to put the property for sale. Absent her ability to refinance, that seems to be your only choice under the circumstances. I'm not sure what happened in your bankruptcy and you should ask your bankruptcy attorney.  Most likely you were discharged from the debt, meaning the bank can't pursue you for the money owed, but again, you should check this with your bankruptcy attorney.

Can you have your name removed from a car loan if you divorce?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
That is not the way that it works. The bank will not remove your name from the loan. The other party would have to agree to hold you harmless and indemnify you, and that is the most you can expect.

Will his wife get everything?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Joanna Marie Mitchell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Joanna Mitchell & Associates, P.A.
If you are in Florida and he has only been married for a short time, she will likely not get very much. He needs to consult with an attorney though in order to best determine his potential rights and options, as well as how to proceed.
