Hi all. My mom has worked very hard to obtain and pay for the home she lives in (which was bought before the marriage) and another property that she has been restoring (which was bought during the marriage). While her husband has worked very hard at being abusive and spending tons of money on music equipment and drugs. She has been thinking about divorce for over a year. A year ago she talked to a lawyer who told her that if he signed a Quit Claim Deed for each property that he could not touch the properties she has possession of in a divorce. She got him to sign them. Well after a domestics violence issue and me beating him off of her, she is ready to divorce him. Now a different lawyer says that the Quit Claim Deed won't hold up in divorce court, that since North Carolina is a No-Fault state if it goes to Equitable Division he will be able to stake claim to the other property. Is this true?
