I am divorcing my husband due to unreasonable behaviour. We have 2 children 7 and 13 years old. Married for 8 years together for 18. We have a joint property that is being rented out. Husband won't agree to terminate their tenancy in order for me to move back in with kids. We currently live in his house. Considering selling the joint home ( he owns 3 others) Negotiating on percentage split but he won't agree on me getting most of the equity. I've found that he has stacked up £160k in debt which he says has been used for home improvements and believes that I won't get anything from the sale as debts will have to be settled ( matrimonial debts that I had no idea, no discussion was had about any loans) . I worry that if I take him to court I won't see any money as courts will order that debts are split between us but I refuse to settle for 50/50 on the equity made on the sale of the joint home. Now he is telling me that the money used for his other homes was not his money which I do not believe ?? I have a solicitor ready and waiting but worried that I won't end up with anything.

The 3 other properties he owns are also marital property and you are entitled to a share in them.
Speak to women’s aid and ask fir a list of their solicitors who have experience in dealing with abusive men. Get legal advice and follow it
In the meantime get together all the financial information you can. All assets, no matter who you think owns them, payslips, pensions.
Good luck

You need to gather information on all assets and all debts, inc all house/ pensions etc in his, yours and joint names
That will determine what assets are available to split. The family home won’t be looked at in isolation

Your solicitor is really the one best placed to advise you through this
