hi all, my wife and I separated in August 2013. I moved out of the jointly owned home. There is equity in the property. With regards to the separation, we have had legal advice but nothing official has been done yet and we are amicable. I have continued to pay towards maintenance and the mortgage. Over the last few months her new boyfriend seems to be there quite a lot and is now working with a full time job. Is it possible for him (in time) to claim beneficial interest in the property and how can I legally stop this from happening? thanks

He cannot obtain a beneficial interest in your share of the property.

If your wife were to accept monies from her new partner over a lengthy period of time, it might be the case that he would acquire a financial interest in her share but this won''t happen overnight.

There is nothing you can do to prevent any beneficial entitlement occurring as you are not in residence and your share won''t be affected.
