    My wife and I have been separated for almost a month now. I have moved out into a caravan park. We have been here in Brisbane for 12 months now and we sold our house back in Inverell in January or February and I have no idea where the money has gone. $140k is not a small amount but I seem to be getting the runaround about where it has all gone.
  • It is great that it has to be a clear communication of you are leaving the house; in Australia. Here, in USA if you just take a vacation trip they take it as you leave the house and then you cannot get back to it again even if you didn’t have the intention to leave. The other party just needs to lie and you are out.

    What if you both come into the marriage with seperate wills...and in my case as i dont know his...assets go to my children and one of my kids is power of attorney?

    What is meant by "pay your own bills?" What if one party is a house husband and was relying on the income of the other? How is that party supposed to pay their own bills? Or do they have to come to an agreement based on affordability, which puts the non income earner (or lower income earner) at the mercy of the higher income earner? Or is the lower income earner not allowed to initiate divorce?

    My husband and I separated after 28 years of marriage. He signed the house over to my name, and I wrote up an agreement where, as he would give up all rights and ownership forevermore to the house, and that he would keep his pension and equity for himself. we still haven’t divorced. Is my contract that was notarized and signed by both of us binding?
