What is the name of your state? Va
My mother and father have been separated since 1996...The home we live in is in my father's name, but my mom has been paying for it since he left. I was 16 at the time with a younger sister and being that we decided to stay with our mom, we were awarded the residence. He was ordered to pay alimony and child support until my sister and I turned 18. He payed off and on over the past almost 9 years and still owes 10's of thousands of dollars in back support and alimony. My mom has recently filed for divorce and we are worried that my father will not sign the house over. He has had no part in paying on it, nor has he lived here and he has refused up to this point to sign the home over. He thinks that he has no responsibility for the support (becuase sis and I are over 18 now) and alimony and also believes that he will recieve half of the profits if mom sells the house. Being that he owes that much money to us, would he be entitled to any of the profits? Also, is there any way to legally get him to sign the house over whether he wants to or not seeing that he has not contributed in any payments or upkeep of the property?
