Good morning
First time user of the forums and i thought i'd reach out here first before contacting my local lawyers.
I have a tricky situation regarding the properties where my family and i dwell/own.
My father is an alcoholic and things have gotten worse lately. He lives with myself and my mother (his wife). He has had a mistress for 30+ years.
The house in which we reside has himself and the mistress on the mortgage.
The House in which we reside lists himself and I on the deed.
The car in which he owns is in his name.
He recently lost his job due to his alcoholism. His mistress filed a restraining order against him which he violated so he will trailed.
I have to start planning for my family's safety. What will happen regarding the ownership of the house if he's jailed. What if we want to sell? If he does not get jailed for the violation of his restraining order, is there a way that we can protect ourselves financially? He's not going to be able to get a job now as his own reference (25+ years of work) will report his alcoholism.
Please ask any questions so i can help anyone here help me.
We're from Queens NY.
Thank you all very much
