Can I claim money from my ex''s sale of house?

The lifestyle variation is always the hardest to get the CSA to account for. Assets on the otherhand should be more straightforward. I was awarded this variation based on ex having a second property, but I still needed to produce evidence of ownership and deeds.

I wonder if anyone knows if there are an public records associated with inheritance that you could access?

Any help and advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Yep, Maisymoos is right, but of course it may take time before the money is actually in your ex''s hands, so do your detective work quietly and don''t let on to your ex or he could be as devious as he is with his self-employed income.

I agree, some men! My ex pays for our youngest via the csa, but only because he has no choice as he is employed. If he was self-employed I am pretty sure our daughter would not see a penny of his earnings.

Good luck - your children deserve to be financially assisted by their father - whether he likes it or not!

Hi again Ellie I have just found an old thread on inheritance (but don''t know how to copy it, its ref is #251995), basically the reply from Little Mike (a well known wiki) said you can normally ask for a copy or grant of administration from the York District Registry and that it normally takes some months following a death to get a grant.

Sounds positive!

Hi Ellie,
I would have thought that having been divorced for so long and suffered harrasssment you might be better off not pursuing this.

LostBoy why? Ellie is looking out for her children and to get what they are legally entitled to by way of child support. The CSA asset rule is there for a reason!

Yeah LB, I would totally agree with you if it were the case that he had disappeared and left us alone, whilst he got on with his life. I certainly would not be pursuing him as I wouldn''t want to invite him back into our lives, however, the situation is that he is still trying to bankcrupt me by constantly insisting on court appearances - even though there is no real reasons to go to court regarding contact with his daughter.

He has said several times that he will not rest until I am broke and in the gutter ''where I belong''! He doesn''t care about his kids - his only concern is getting back at me!

As Maisymoos says, all I want is for him to provide for his kids in a proper, responsible manner. I don''t think that is too much to ask, is it?
