Hi
I'd really appreciate opinions on this please, and the benefit of anyone's experience, if you have had dealings of this nature re: divorce.
Since 2012 I have owned a third of my mother's house worth approx £90,000. It was gifted to me by my parents. My father died two years ago and my mother is 86 and happily still living independently in it. She owns the remaining two-thirds share.
AS part of divorce settlement STBXH husband is trying to claim £50,000 of my third of my mother's house, arguing that it is a matrimonial asset. Marriage broke down in 2014 after 18 years.
Would you love to know what everyone thinks? Does he have a fair claim or not? Should this be regarded as a matrimonial asset or a non-matrimonial asset? Thanks for your thoughts.
