I am from California and I live my parents' house. After establishing a business here, my parents moved back to India and gave everything to me to manage. That's how Indian families are. My girlfriend and I both live in my parents' house. My girlfriend is not Indian. We are in the middle of breaking up because I just found out that my girlfriend is a gold digger. She just wants my (or should I say my parents') wealth. And I don't want a girlfriend like her in my life.

My question is ...

If we breakup, does she have any rights to my (my parents') house, other properties, cars, bank accounts? Please help me. I live in a 5 bedroom house and I have 3 cars. Everything is owned by my family. Meaning, my name is on everything, but my parents actually paid for all the stuff. The 3 cars (BMW, Range Rover, and Escalade) are also under my name. I pay for their gas, lease, insurance. The house has been paid for. I pay all the utility bills, groceries, etc.

My girlfriend pays for the following things: her cell phone bill, shopping (her cloths, etc). She drives my BMW, but doesn't want to pay for its gas, insurance, and lease. Straight up gold digger. I want to dump her and kick her out of my house and life.

Can she claim any of my properties (cars, houses, other real estate that my family owns, my bank balance, etc)? Please help me. Thank you all.

By the way, we have been together for almost 2 years. She moved in 10 months ago.

She is threatening my that she will take me to the court if I don't give her some of my property, a car, and some money. WTF is this man? F*** My LIFE SERIOUSLY :((((

All the things are under MY NAME except for HER CELLPHONE. Period. She doesn't have a car and does have a place to live, but my house.

Legally as just a GF she has NO entitlement to any of your things if they are just in your name. If you have a joint bank account immediately CLOSE IT and take some of the money out of it and give the rest to her.
If she takes you to court she will not win anything! PLUS she can only take you to SMALL CLAIMS court without a lawyer which means she can only win max about 5,000 dollars. BUT she won't win anything!
Legally it is all owned by your parents which means she would have to sue your parents and they don't even live in the USA.

First trick her into giving you the car keys, etc (be nice). Then kick her out. If she doesn't pay rent or any household bills you can legally kick her out without notice! Pack up her stuff and put it outside. Change the locks if you have to. Tell her it is over.
I would offer to pack up her things or pay for a UHaul truck for her but I would tell her she has less than 30 days to leave or else you will have her removed by the police.
She has NO legal standing. Even if she sues you she won't win a dime! Seriously. As a GF living with you for only a year or less she has no legal rights to anything of yours that is not in her name.

She has no rights. Just call a moving service and have her stuff packed up and moved out and delivered to her nearest relative. Get your car back too.

I feel sorry for the next woman you are with because she may be good as gold but you won't see it and will make her pay for the mistakes of this woman.

Don't even say you did not see the signs of who this woman was before.....

Merry Christmas

No, she has no rights to your things...if you two were married (or common law married) she'd have some rights to things acquired during the marriage...

Methinks you posted to brag about your stuff (if it's even true) rather than ask a serious question, because no one needed to know ANY details about your assets to tell you if she'd have a right to anything you had or not...

You moved in with someone before getting to know her properly. Why do you suddenly want her to leave? There must be more to this; perhaps you are not the wonderful person she once believed you to be. What are the values and ambitions you based your relationship on?

A lawyer will know more about your rights than anyone here,on suspects.`

First of all, if it's in your name, it's your property, not your parents'. Welcome to the US!

Dump her, and if she gets an attorney, get one of your own. You might end up having to sell one car in order to pay your legal expenses, but that's not likely. A decent attorney can have this nuisance suit thrown out with a quickness.

Sorry playing house does not entitle her to the house or any thing else for that matter. let this be a lesson don't play house with girls.

[valentino]

NO she does NOT! If you two were married - then she'd get 50%. Contact a lawyer, A.S.A.P., and get this settled NOW!

You need to serve her with eviction papers and give her 30 days to vacate.

She is a renter not a co-owner, and unless things are in her name or she can show they were a gift, she's out of luck.

However, you need to make sure you re-key the car locks before and not give her the new keys, and be prepared to change the locks on the property once she's had her 30 days to vacate.

If you have all this money, talk to a lawyer and get it done right.
