Cohabitation without marriage (Family Law)

Thu, 12 Jun 2003 15:14:00 GMT

West Virginia I have been living with my partner for 7 years. We are in the process of building a house. The loan is in his name at the bank, but at the place of purchase it is in both our names. We are currently having problems and will probably split up. I have contributed financially and physically to the construction of the house. What are my legal options? His work record will show that he has been unemployed for 2 years during which time I was making payments.

  • I am uncertain what you mean by "at the place of purchase". When you bought the lot that you are building on, were both your names put on the vesting deed?
