Legal Question
I have been married for almost 30 years. Our home is paid off. I made every single
mortgage payment on the house since I moved in in Jan, 1981. That amounts to
25 years of a 30 year mortgage. I also paid off 3 2nd mortgages, the proceeds of which all went to my wife. My wife steadfastly refused to add my name to the deed
on the house. Should we get divorced will I be able to recover my fair share
of my contributions to these mortgages. I have no hardcopy documentation that
I made all these payments but a check of ss earnings records would clearly show
who brought in the lion's share of income to the household and in turn who paid the
majority of the bills
