Spurgeons and Dad.Info doesn’t investigate reports of abuse or neglect. But below, you can find advice on who to contact if you have concerns about a child or young person.

 

Reporting a concern

It can be difficult to know what to do if you think a child is at risk. It’s important to remember that if you’ve spotted things that don’t seem right, others will have too. Speaking up can make sure that child gets help as soon as possible.

 

The sooner you contact your local children’s social care duty team, the quicker they can act. They’re available 24 hours a day, and can make an anonymous report if that feels safer. If a child is in immediate danger, please call the police straight away by dialling 999.

[Solved] Can she claim my debts from anyone else?

Cutting a long story short, in losing our house four years ago (through my financial mismanagement) which meant we both had to go bankrupt, my wife lost her £36k savings she had invested as deposit. Now we are separating, she wants it back!
For the purposes of this discussion, I am not going to challenge that principle....

...but, I have no money and am currently not in a very well paid job.

My main question is - In this situation, is there a way that she can refuse to accept any 'small amount per month over a large number of years' type of offer that I can realistically make at this point, and instead look to claim the money from my parents instead? On what, if any, grounds could she legitimately go after them for money???

Could she make a claim against any lump sums I receive (ie any inheritance)?
In an ideal world, it would great if I could borrow the money from somewhere so that she could be paid in full now and I could gradually pay them back over many years, but I suspect such a scheme does not exist (especially for a discharged bankrupt).

I suspect that she could claim later on inheritance or pensions just like any ex wife could.

I cant see how you can be forced to borrow to pay her this money, might be wrong, and I think that she would have to accept what ever you can offer at the moment or wait for said inheritance or pension if they exist.

Regards,

Dave
