hello, heres my background info:
dating guy approx(may 08) 2 months before i moved in to a house with him and 2 other guys(aug 08). we lived there 11 months and then moved into a house that i purchased (end of june 09). The house is in my name, i paid for all costs. The catcher is that he pays what we called rent, untill now that we are talking about breaking up, now he calls it half the mortgage. He has been paying a set amount every month, its a portion of the mortgage plus half of gas/cable/electricty. So basically he is telling me he talked to a lawyer (sept 2010) and says he can take half right now if he felt like pursuing it. Would that be only if he claimed unjust enrichment? i just want to know what to expect. im feeling bullied.
can he take half that easily? weve only lived in my house for 14 months, and we didnt claim commonlaw on our taxes. thanks for any insight
