i really need legal help on this. in the divorce 2002 i got a piece of property. by may of 2004 my ex had ruined my income on that property and put me in a position to sell it back to him. i agreed after stating that the only way i would was an exchange of prior marital assets so that i did not have to pay taxes on the gains of the sale. i gave my brother power of attorney to close the deal for me because i was out of the USA. somehow my ex screwed me and his attorney 1099ed me to the tune of over 0,000 to pay taxes on…to the feds and the state i owe almost ,000.00 I don’t have the money and my acct says she sees no way that i don’t owe this. i’m not faulting her. is there anything that i can do legally about this…i am just so tired of trying so hard to do the right thing and then getting screwed any way…my ex was always stiffing the government when he really owed them..and this is one more thing he pulled on me and is laughing about. forgive me i feel sorry for myself







I don’t have anything yet, house, car or bank acct. But I would like to have a prenup in case if in the future I make my own money and I would like to keep it and same thing with my fiance, but he has a car and bank acct. All I need to know is if we can just do it on own own, no lawyer and notarize it, and have the notary as a witness?
