I fear my husband has deliberately ran up credit card debit/overdraft etc as he knows it is just a matter of time before we separate then Divorce as we have not been getting along for quite some time.

He was previously declared Bankrupt before I met him too although the relevant time has since elapsed and he has been back on track for a number of years now with his finances but I am now feeling a bit concerned as to what the future holds for me.

He has been Divorced before so knows how to play the game and now I fear I am going to lose out financially when the division of our home is carried out. I have payed half the mortgage and bills.

Is there anything I can do to protect myself before the ball starts rolling?

Make sure you both have agreed an official date of separation via your respective Solicitor''s. All assets in Scotland are from the date of marriage to the date of official separation.

Hope that helps?

Take care for now FoS x
