I have been in a common law relationship for about 10 years. My ex claims her inheritance money was put into a joint account in which we pay are bills. Her lawyer has now given me a separation agreement he has drafted up saying I must give back her inheritance money.
Question is, assuming she actually did do this, is she legally intitled to get the money back as it was put into a joint account? When this is done does it not become a joint asset? At the same time I did not have any influence on her with respect to where she spent her money. For all I care she could have taken an amazing world vacation or something. Why would I need to pay this money back to her upon seperation?
