He’s disposing of all the money

Hey all, so got the x’s form E and he’s made large payments to his family members in the last couple of months.
obviously I will raise these points but how many have been successful with this kind of thing please?
hes also not attached documents like his business accounts and lied his way through the whole form 🤦🏼‍♀️
it’s so frustrating when I have been so honest with mine.
thanks for taking the time to read this. I guess I’m just after some reassurance really.

How’s things? I am going through similar now too. It’s scary after so many years being married (mine was 26), that the one person that you thought had your back, is the one to stab you in it.
hope you’re doing well

Hiya
sorry you are going through this too, irs honestly awful isn’t it. Where are you with it all? I actually feel sick with the lies he’s told on his forms to be honest it’s just horrid.
so much more to mine but I don’t want to put it all on here.
I’m just really praying that they see through him and it all gets sorted out soon.

Going through something similar. Mine has apparently been plotting this for a while and has made 5 and 6 figure wire transfers to family and his mistress regularly over the last year— but he claims he’s lost everything and has cut off my utilities and is set on allowing our flat (which is in his name) to get repossessed rather than pay service charges. His blatant nondisclosure on his Form E meant the judge had to adjourn the first appointment since there wasn’t enough information. I’m out of cash and have to go it alone in court from here on and I’m terrified he’s going to get away with it all. I’m on Universal Credit and he’s spent over 100k in cash on himself just since I filed for divorce this summer, and I don’t trust this system to correct that. I mean, how are they realistically going to get money back if he’s sent it offshore, which I think he has?

Sorry for the rant— but I totally understand the feeling of having to see them practically gloat about what they’re doing because they’re so convinced they’re impervious.

Dh’s ex did this 🤷‍♀️

emptied their savings. like pp it was planned as she knew she was ending the marriage (her affair) he didn’t.

i don’t actually know what happened to it but he certainly didn’t get it back. I think because it was her taking the money no one was as bothered as they were joint accounts. He didn’t have anything of his own, and she got the house, so for some reason that was ok, as people seemed focussed on what she should get, not on sharing what they had.

Mine ran through his £100k + pension fund in a year. The Judge at Final Hearing wasn't impressed when he then claimed poverty.

Yes but were there any consequences and did it impact the decision? Not being impressed is neither here nor there really? Just curious

unsync · 30/11/2024 18:26

@Anotherworrier Yes, it did affect the outcome. Apart from a small sum which went directly to ex's previous solicitors (to settle an outstanding invoice as they were about to start bankruptcy proceedings), ex got nothing. I was awarded all the equity and a pension he had accrued prior to us meeting and marrying. There's other stuff too but it is very specific.

Oh interesting, that’s good! Thanks for sharing.

God it’s so wrong isn’t it x my solicitor said they could make him sell one of the other properties and repay me that way but who knows.

hes swanning around in the family home whilst the little one and me are still sharing a bed. In a house that’s not even ours.

the fact they just spend money like water and we are struggling is so wrong x

my inbox is open if u need to talk x

I really hope things works out in your favour x

when is your next court date?

If nothing else you could get him for it looking like a tax dodge, you're not supposed to gift people more than 3k in a year.

OP, pls listen to your solicitor only because posts like this are factually incorrect. Whilst I’m sure well intentioned, they are totally misleading you I’m afraid.
