Estoppel Question Advise Needed

[Tiger7861]

Me and my partner live in my parents house for 15 years now they want me out in the past on numerous occasions they have promised me and my partner the house but nothing on paper
The deeds are in there name and we have never paid any rent or mortgage but we have spent money on the property over 10 years about 15k . Do I have any chance of keeping the house or staying here we have 2 children the solicitor had advised me of estoppel saying that you parents have broken there promise?Additional DetailsI forgot to mention me and my husband are separated know he is saying that no promise was made I have a witness to the promise but we did apply for local housing housing register waiting for a house will that have any significance ?
As the landlords are saying one of the conditions of staying there was that you stay on the hosing register.
In other words we did not reply to our detriment can this act bee taken like this ?

[woofgang]

[woofgang]

oh hurrah, someone saw it!

[Peter Pedant]

this is very desk toppy innit ?

along with Barmaid's help....

I think one of my early posts is - we dont know all the facts -
so I am unsurprised by er these surprises....

[Tiger7861]

I can't pay mortgage every month

[Tiger7861]

If I hire a qc will that help

[bednobs]

why not? no-one lives for free

[Peter Pedant]

.

It'll help the QC !

woof I can hear you woofing outside the back door.

If you have 13K what don't you use it (rather than waste it) to rent and furnish a home for your children and give them a settled home life. You said one of your children has ADHD, all this fuss can't be doing either of them any good.

[wolf63]

Has woof been sent to the naughty step?

[Tiger7861]

Yes that's why the could will not boot me out he has this condition according to solicitor

[woofgang]

no, I made sad face and got the shaken finger and don't do it again....

[sherrardk]

I wouldn't rely on your belief that your child has ADHD for keeping a roof over your head.

[Tiger7861]

I,meant court

[Peter Pedant]

I am heavily committed to 400 completely ignored and useless comments....

[scorpiojo]

Has your child actually been diagnosed with ADHD? You said you had a note from the hospital, then said you didn't have a note.

[Tiger7861]

Yes he has will that help me

Tiger Please let us know how this goes I really want to know.
I am still certain that the only way a solicitor would say you have a case is if you have not told him/her the full facts.
You marry and live in the in-laws house rent free for 15 years, then after divorce the they have to give you the house free, just because during the marriage they allegedly promised verbally to give you the house. This promise being denied by both the ex husband and the his parents.
The only other thing I can see is that this 'solicitor' is a fraudster who is trying to get cash out of you on a non winnable case . I expect him to take your £13,000 and then keep it without the case ever getting near a court.
If you take this case to court and do not win you will loose your £13,000 AND pay the other sides costs as well as the court fees. what does your solicitor say about that?

[sherrardk]

ADHD covers a broad spectrum of behaviour, you would be better off using the 13K you say you have to secure a rented property and furnish it for the good of your children. (Although I must admit I am curious as to how you have managed to accrue 13K.)
