| | | Need Advice What is the name of your state? AZ
After only 8 months, my wife and I are getting divorced. Before we were married (2 years ago) she wanted to use her savings to pay off my car and credit card debt. I owe her about $25,000. Since were living together and then married I never paid her a penny, and she never asked. The last 6 months of our marriage she quit work and I paid all bills incl. her mortgage, payments on her rental homes, home repairs etc ...
Now that we're separated she is demanding I pay her off in the amount of $1500.00 / mo. I know I owe her $$$, but I want to deduct the $$ I paid toward her investment properties and only pay $1000.00 per mo.
Can I do that???
BTW... she is holding ALL my possessions in the home until I pay her $1500.00!!!!!
Please help. |

Please help. | NEVER take "legal advice" from your X, or your STBX. Ever. It's not in their best interests to tell you the truth, is it?
Really? You don't owe her squat. The two of you need to divide marital assets and marital debts.
