Hi everyone I was wondering if someone can offer me some advice before I contact a solicitor.
I left my husband in March 2019 due to ongoing unreasonable behaviour committed by my husband. I resided in the family home until November 2019 as I had nowhere else to go and he refused to leave until I found somewhere else to live as although we both lived there the house was in his name and he basically said I had to leave with our child. During that time it became hostile where the police were called on a couple of occasions due to him being violent. In the end I had no other option than to move in with my friend and apply for social housing.
Financially I did not receive anything from husband as he refused to help me and nor did he financially provide for our child which I am still in the process of fighting for.
I received a letter at the end of last year stating my husband had applied for divorce due to the fact we had been split up since October 2018. I then declined this and stated this was untrue as I did not leave him until March 2019. I then received another letter this morning stating I committed adultery and that I met someone else whilst living with him and am pregnant with the male in question.
Surely he cannot state one thing and then claim I committed adultery as isn't that lying to the courts?
Also would I be entitled to anything from him even though the home is in his name? We were together for ten years
He is self employed and has stated to CSA he is claiming benefits so I am entitled to nothing for our child. Where do I stand in regards to this?
Sorry for the long winded comment but I am stuck in what to do
