A. Dear Client,
Verify the property's ownership status. If the property is solely in your husband's name and there are loan documents to prove his ownership, then legally, it's his property. If your father-in-law and sister-in-law are harassing or threatening you, you can consider seeking a restraining order against them. Your lawyer can help you with this process. Maintain records of any harassment, threats, or disputes, including phone call records, text messages, or any other evidence that may b ...ReadMore
