 |
|
Hi everyone. I just posted yesterday about my 2 month old marriage on the rocks. I tried to respond earlier but my entry didn't take. I still want to respond to those who left comments. But I need quick advice.
My husband is in Maryland right now and I'm in Virginia. He bought me a new car on March 10th and now he is trying to take it away from me. I just started a new job this week. Today was my fourth day of work.
We are still married so can he take the car away from me? That would mean that I would have to ask my parents if I can borrow one of their cars to get back and forth to work and take my son to day care and so forth. The car is in his name but we are married so can he really take the car away from me?? Are their laws to protect me until we are offically divorced, he hasn't even filed yet? |

I think you should a) get your parents involved or b) ask an attorney.
Best of luck to you. |

I second that. Unfortunately, you won't
find legal advice here.
You might want to check on 'free' or low cost
legal services in your area.
I suggest you read this post:

And The National Domestic Violence Hotline might
be able to offer advice. They are at:
800-799-SAFE (7233)
Please stay in touch. |

| Unfortunately, if all the financing papers were done in his name alone and you did not co-sign any of the papers with him, the car is his. You'll need to see an attorney for a separation agreement that would allow you to keep the car for transportation. And, your husband may not agree to this as part of the agreement. |

| The car was picked up 2 days ago. Today I am planning to go to the dealership to look for a new car. Today I just feel very numb. I took a nap and when I woke up everything seemed normal until reality of my situation set back in. I am really just trying to keep it all together and not unravel or fall into depression. I just feel so stupid right now for allowing myself to be in this situation. This is just another screw up to add to my long list of life screw ups. I am trying so hard not to whine about this because I know that God is good and I know that he will make away but my fleshly emotions are getting the best of me. I have another issue also but I will put that in a new post |
