Is there a statute of limitation, in a divorce agreement regading sale of home? IN GA..

can a house that was suppose to b sold 20 years ago now be forced to sell after a new wife and death of husband. can the x come forward 20 years later to claim 1/2 of something she never enforced for 20 years? she never filed a lein, never filed papers. nothing.. now that he died and I was married to the man for 18 years, now she shows up out of the blue and wants half of the house I can not see why all of a sudden she cares. .This is my home due to the fact that she never claimed it. tell me my rights please,Is there not a statute of limitations on such a manner.

There would seem to be a number of problems with her claim, and many defenses availabel to you. A good lawyer would need to know many more specifics about your situation to properly advise you. With a house on the line, it would certainly seem worth your while to hire one. I would be pleased to consult with you, or you could hire an attorney of your choosing, but please do hire one ... soon.

I do plenty of divorce work in your area.
