Hi I know I need to seek legal advice but wondered if anyone can advise on steps I need to take..
Been in a verbally abusive relationship for 11 years. Have 4 children between ages of 9 and 3. I work and am not married.
Mortgage is in joint names.
I’m so unhappy and have no help with children at all. I do it all from homework to running them to clubs/school etc
Weekends is his time he says and never does anything with childten. He is self employed and not been bothered to work much the past 6 months putting even more pressure on me.
I’m exhausted both mentally and physically and my weekends are dedicated to my children. I love being with them and do not want to miss a single thing.
The relationship is over. He says sell the house and give me my half....but if I do that I won’t be able to get another mortgage on my own....I didn’t know if I could stay in the house a few years until I can earn more money to then get a mortgage on my own?
He’s already said he won’t work so I won’t receive any maintenance...
I’d be grateful for any advice as I feel so alone and worried what to do for the best for my children. Thanks
