Does Missouri recognize common law marriages & what are the requirements to be considered to be common law marriages? What are the rights to a house if only one partner has the name on it?

My response:

Missouri is not a Common Law marriage State. It is, however, a "Separate Property" State. As for the house, you didn't say when it was purchased - - before or during the marriage.
