Can someone help me please! My ex-husband and I bought a property together for the sake of our child. We had been living under the same roof peacefully until a couple of weeks ago he beat me. I called the police and he was charged. I now feel it's very difficult to continue living this way. I want to sell the house and get my own place. I don't think that he will agree to sell the house. He is also very shhort tempered and I am afraid what's going to happen if I tell him what I want to do. Can someone please give me some advice what's the best thing to do? Thank you.

Move out now, as soon as you can find alternative accommodation.

Apply to the court for an Order of Division and Sale, to order him to sell the house and divide any equity. If there is no equity, you will get nothing, if there is negative equity you will be responsible for part of the debt.

See a solicitor and start divorce proceedings.
