Hi everyone. I need some help please. I’m in a bit of a state. A month ago, I caught my husband having an affair after a 30 year marriage. Daughter is 22 and at Uni term time. Apparently he’s in love and just wants to leave (but hasn’t yet which is very difficult). He is also an alcoholic and can be manipulative and mentally abusive. He is adamant that he ants to give his half of the house to our daughter as long as I give him some money from my redundancy (made redundant after 20 years end Dec 2020). But despite him wanting to do that and me contributing more all throughout and money from parents whenever husband dropped out of yet another job blah blah, I understand the court will still grant him half. So I have to sell our home anyway, unless I take a chance that he will stick to his word, take some money from me and sign the house over. Is there any way I can stay in my home and protect myself from any future claims? If he transfers his half the house to our daughter, are we protected? What if we gifted our whole home to our daughter? Any thoughts you may have I will be so grateful for. I am lost. Lastly, and I can never find an answer to this on the net, with a financial consent to be finalised, is it only the intent to sell and split assets that is agreed or so you actually have to prove you have sold the house? Thanks for any advice you can give.
