Dear Sir

Thank you for your enquiry.

However, you will need to attend Mediation first unelss there are exemptions for not attending one. Please make an appointment or feel fee to give us a call to chat first on 0203 9 599 123 and see how our expertise in children matters may assist you further. We look further to hearing from you.

After separating from my wife she is not letting me see my 4year old daughter for no reason. What can I do about the situation?

Hi there,

The ownership of a vehicle is something which can be argued regardless of who is named on the V5 document. The registration document confirms at the top of the document that it is not proof of ownership and that the person named is the registered keeper and responsible for taxing, insuring and the MOT on the vehicle.

The registered keeper should usually be the person who is actually using / keeping the vehicle but not necessarily the owner of the vehicle or the person who is paying for it. The owner could be the person who put up the cash for the vehicle, or if the car is leased or a company car, the owner will be the company.

The registered keeper is the person responsible for parking tickets etc, and when you think about it, that’s why a lease company would want the driver to be the registered keeper, even though they own the vehicle.

Where the vehicle has been given as a gift, it is arguable either way but the presumption will be that it belongs to her. If you are married the ownership of property is usually classed as joint. If you are not, then the person who received the gift would usually be the owner, but it would depend on the particular circumstances. It may depend for example on who has paid for ongoing repairs, insurance, road tax and any finance payments. If that has been you, then you may have a claim for all or part of the vehicle in equity.

We’d be happy to run through the options available to you and answer any further queries that you may have by contacting our Family law team at Ison Harrison Solicitors on 0800 316 0525.

I've recently split up with my partner, I bought her a car last year which is currently in her name. Can I claim the car back off her?
