Hi I need some advice please.
My step daughter is in the most dreadful state.
She has separated from her partner but has been living with him amicably for the last few months. She is on the council list and has been actively bidding for a property so it's not like she isn't trying to do the right thing but she is one of hundreds of people bidding.
They have a two year old daughter and suddenly out of the blue on Saturday he told her he is evicting them both and they have 30 days to get out. She has no idea where this has come from but is obviously very worried.
To give you the full story I need to add that he is classed as having a mental disability having had a car accident when he was a child. I don't know the full details but I do know that he was awarded half a million pounds which was put into a trust fund. He has an appointee that deals with his finances and the house apparently is in the name of some financial person (sorry I don't know exactly who). he has a support worker who supports him 3 times a week.
My questions are:
Is he legally allowed to evict them?
Does he have a legal responsibility to financially support his daughter even though he has a disability? Although he gets benefits he does have access to any money that he wants i.e. house repairs, holidays etc.
I'm sorry for the essay but her dad and I need to support her and have no idea of the legalities involved.
Thank you
