    he told her to relax and come over she could stay there

    so she moved in...YES ODD

    he owns his own home worth app 300K

    one think got to another and they got engaged

    child poped out....hes now a proud DADDY

    turned out she was after his home and money the hole time

    she works for a firm that does work with solicitors ...and got him to agree in writing to 50/50 on everything.....THE DAM FOOL AGREEDED

    anyway she was playing around in the background and has now moved out..shacked up with a so called friend.

    left him on his own

    took his wee daughter that he is mad about

    stopped him from seeing the child

    he had to take her to court to see the child...it was granded for 2 days per week.

    now she wants half the house 150K cash

    he dont have the money to pay her.

    he has offerd half that she told him where to go.

    she took most of the house contents
    she took the car
    she took the child
    she gets paid weekly for the child

    the guy is at the edge what can we do to help him?

    prenuptial agreements won't stand up in the uk. He needs to divorceicon her stating infidelaty etc also is he 100% sure the kid is his? Get the police involved with the taking of the car if it was just in his name - cancel the insurance (for her) and she will be driving a stolen car without insurance - obviously warn her before doing this in writing recorded delivery so she can't argue about having received it. If she does end up with a criminal conviction for anything then trying to get custody will be easier for your friend.

    OK, your friend needs to see a solicitor dealing in this kind of thing (there are lots around) as soon as possible.

    Generally (having just been through this one) the courts would order 25% of all his future income to be paid as maintanence for his daughter, until she's 18 (you may want to check timescale though, because I'm not 100% sure what happens around leavin school, going to university etc....) This would be paid to the mother and unfortunatley she would control what happens to it.

    As there is no such thing as a common law partner, which means (I'm assuming your friend didn't sign a trust deed) for herself she's not entitled to a share of anything.

    Had they been married then assuming only a short marriageicon each party would be returned to the financial position when they entered the marriage by the courts.

    Regarding her obtaining money for his car, then he should report this to the police as this is a criminal offence (but I suspect they'd return this to him as a civil matter)

    I suspect, although he does need a solicitor to confirm this, that him signing away 50% of his assets will be pretty meaningless.

    Hope this helps

    Hugh

    Given the circumstances and the apparent motive of this female, has your friend considered a DNA test to ascertain if he is the father of the child?

    No need for a DNA TEST this poor chap is in a wheel chair and cant make babies like most of us

    the little Daughter that he loves so much cost him 10K

    so in other words he had to pay for his own daughter

    also note payment came out of his bank account not hers nor joint HIS

    he has the statments to prove it

    She in other words sold her body as a machine to give him what he always wanted then tried to bleed him dry

    they got alot work done on the house and remortgaged she said she wanted on the deeds of the house for her security...HE ALLOWED THIS


    in my words to claim her half

    he is going to go into this in depth with me later so I will keep you all posted

    also a point to look at if it will help him?

    I traced her X Hubby she split with him took 80% of the goods and his home...very bad experience with her...will not put in writing as says he has moved on..

    is there anyway under the freedom of information act to get a report on the split up of the x marriageicon?

    as this would show the court she is a con artist

    all advice welcome

    getting info on her as well would be very good I have her surname before she was married

    thanks again

    I called by her new address and there is a car in the drive way turns out it is her Boss

    neibour says its there most nights stays over

    how can we prove to the court that he lives there as she seems to have all the bills in her name bar the elec that is in his name

    she claims she is renting the house off him and is landlord not lover

    as far as the split goes she sold het own home and put app 20k into the house with my mate she and him both got a remortgage together JOINT

    she then said she like to be added to the deeds of the house for security
    is there any loophole that can get her off the mortgageicon

    he has kpt his side of the deal ie: he pays for the child every week
    she has not paid a penny towards the mortgageicon since she left.....turns out she never even paid a penny towards the house for mortgage or upkeep even while she lived there

    got to be a loop hole as she breaks the contract
    how can she claim half the house when she not paying for it

    any advice welcome

    With a good solicitor he she be hopefully able to just pay back the 20k as he can prove thats all she put in and never paid any of the mortgageicon payments (maybe a bit more if the house has significantly changed in value).

    Its no good keep coming back here you really do need to speak to a legal proffesional and start the ball rolling asap.

    It would appear from your posts that you are watching this woman and asking neighbours about her. I'm sure this would not been seen to be a good thing. I know you want to help your friend but I don't think your methods are the right of way of doing this.
    As Blacksheep says, your friend really needs to see a solicitor about this. It is obviously not a straightforward situation and he needs specialised advice. It makes no difference what you and he believes is happening, you need to do things legally.

    Pam.

    If anything I've said helps you then please feel free to tip my scales!

    Hi,

    Just to echo what LondonPam and Blacksheep have said your friend really needs to see a good solicitor. Stop watching his X as it won't be seen as a good thing.

    Reading between the lines of your post it would appear that your friend and his x were together for some time (mortgageicon and re mortgageicon, multiple IVF cycles etc...) whilst I agree he has been royally stitched over this will make no difference to what the court orders him to pay in terms of the house. His X's behaviour before and after the split is not going to be here or there I'm afraid. The courts overridding concern will be, rightly, the wellfare of the child. How his disability will affect him in this I've no idea.

    Just to say it again, especially considering his circumstances,he really needs some good legal advice.

    Hugh
