A few years ago i was going throught a bad finanacing time, and my wife suggest that i transfer the house deeds on her sole name and later in the future to have my name put back on the deeds. Now we going through a divorce she refuse to have my name put back or agreed to my share of the house.
The property are fully paid for. However i have put a stop for her to sell the property. she also told me she will have me remove from the property.
I never been violent to her or abuses her, just that the marriage have breakdown.I hate to loss my share after all the hard work i have work to pay the mortgage.

Presumably bad financing time = wanting to put your assets beyond the reach of potential creditors.
To that extent, you were successful but now you are going to have to demonstrate to the courts that since you put an equal share in the property, you are entitled to an equal share of any proceeds.
Since you presumably have access to a solicitor for the divorce to ensure that an appropriate division occurs, have you not asked him/her about how you should do this. There's plenty of case law around where this has been done before.
how is it possible, even between man and wife, to transfer the title? I know if you had a joint mortgage this woule not be possible without a buy out, but surely if your financial worries were so serious then the tax man would also be on your tail
dot - no mortgage on property, therefore perfectly able to transfer title
The financial worries were a few years ago - they are over now hence the guy wants his fair share of the house when sold because the tax man is no longer after him
