Wife sold house

Not entitled to anything then. You not on the deeds.

EDIT: You may be entitled since you still married..
Go get a solicitor/lawer.

FYI the first part isn't necessarily correct even if not married. Someone in an unmarried relationship who has been paying towards the mortgage can AFAIK still have a claim on the property too even if it's not in their name.

It doesn't sound like something she owned before the marriage either though presumably she's been paying the mortgage since the separation if OP is only finding out about this now.
 
I left her and the kids in the house to keep things normal for them ie friends and school and their safe house.

Yes paid more than her for mortgage and bills and holidays days out all things a family does.

Oh and it was her that initiated the separation. Some of us men are great dads.

Just putting it out there surely I should be entitled to something.

Best advice is go see someone outside the forums in that case.

Why haven't you started divorce proceedings? That will cover everything and give you some certainty (before she spends it all/ties it all up)

See a solicitor, not general discussion mate.

No two cases will be the same so it’s best to get a professional in.

If you have any friends who are solicitors, have a friendly chat with them.

Try citizen's advice.

Look at the money you have given her over the years/ old emails etc and ask yourself whether you can convincingly argue that you paid into the house.

You really need proper legal advuce- and that will cost money.
 
Does she have a letter box? Obviously she did.


But seriously, looks like it's going to be an expensive unpleasant fight. Because if this was amicable I'm sure a GD thread wouldn't be required.

Good luck!
