Hi Melissa! How can I assist you with your legal issue today?
I was in a relationship for 17 years. I live in Wisconsin and he lives in Illinois. 12 years ago we bought a a house in Wisconsin. He used his dad’s money to pay for it and put it in my name because he didn’t want his ex wife to know and wanted me to always have a house to have in case anything happened. He now wants to put a lien on it for what his dad paid plus interest because I left him. What are mt next steps? We wants to evict me and the deed/title has always been in just my name
