Hi. I escaped an abusive marriage about 7 years ago. We purchased two land properties in the time we were together. In the midst of going through the divorce I was paid out a small amount for one of the properties and I believe I signed titles over to him and also remember going into a bank to sign some papers, which I assumed was me signing my name off the loan (mortgage) as well.
I now have just received a statement for this loan account. All is good and he has been paying the repayment but I thought I was no longer on it. He has been collecting my mail with these statements since and I only found out because my sister works in the post office sorting mail. I have since been into the bank and changed my details and they said I would have to get a solicitor to get my name off the loan.
I did speak to him and he said he didn't take my name off because they means he would have to redraw the loan (of course that would be the case) I really cannot afford a solicitor and do not believe I should be the one paying anyway.
Any information would be a huge help.
Thank you!
