I am in a common law relationship that began in 1987 and ended August 2006. In 1991 I used land gifted to me by my parents to build a house. This property was in my name exclusively until the bank insisted on having us both on title to get a lower interest rate in June 2004. While it was always agreed verbally that the land portion of the property would be retained by myself, upon the break-up in August 2006 my partner reneged this agreement and now wants half of the total value. I have agreed that other rental properties acquired during the relationship be split evenly.
I am wondering if I can claim unjust enrichment of the land portion if she forces the sale of the house?
Also, I am interested in finding out if my right to spousal support has expired since more than two years have passed since our break-up?
