Hi,
My situation is a little sticky. I have been with my husband for 20 yrs, but only married for the last 6.5 yrs. We are still living in the same house but going through the divorce process. We have a child together, she is 5yrs old. I signed a pre-marital agreement 11 days before we were to be married. We bought the house when we were together, but not married, so it is in his name even though I contributed to the down payment when I was still working. He is a very controlling individual, and didn't allow things to be in my name even after marriage. I am a stay at home mom, I don't have a bank account or access to any money, just 2 credit cards to use for groceries. gas and incidentals. I don't have access or knowledge of how much is in his bank accounts, stocks, IRA, etc. Now, he is trying to force me to sign an agreement. He wants to offer one year of rent and utilities and I have to agree to live in 1 of the 3 cities he has chosen. I am scared that if I don't find employment by the end of this term, I would lose my apartment and my child. He is becoming more aggressive by the day, and I don't have money to leave or hire an attorney to fight him. What do you suggest?
