you need legal help , he is obviously trying to gain money from this claim of his against your property.

so i will have to contact a solicitor then that will mean more legal aid costs,and its picking one that is good which can be a problem,cant believe i am fighting once more for my home.

Sorry do not know the legalities of all this -- but you must be devastated and i feel for you. get advice free if you can , CAB or a solicitor who gives some free time , do not let this man grind you down .Brenda.

[ummmm]

My Ex tried to this with my house. He got no where. Because the house was in my name as well as all the bills and everything went out of my account.....My solicitor just laughed.

I'm assuming that the following facts are correct. The CAB or the 'free' solicitor wil advise. They may well advise that you write to the solicitor saying that you do not know what the solicitor has been told by his client but his client is not paying now and never has paid anything towards the mortgage or any other bill. You would however appreciate it if his client would return the mortgage payment book and the other paperwork which his client has mischievously taken.His client has no interest in those documents. The property and mortgage are in your sole name.You have been obliged to make the payments without that original book as the mortgage company can confirm..
Any claim will be strenuously resisted,it being without any basis whatsoever.You would be interested to know on what basis, other than a false and misleading one, in law or equity, his client bases his supposed claim.Perhaps, in the light of the above, he will reconsider and you'll hear no more about it
