    Default Will I Have to Pay Any Household Bills if I Leave My Spouse

    My question involves a marriage in the state of: Alabama. My wife and I have tried counseling and just about everything else and nothing is working. I cannot live like this any more and it is affecting every part of life. I am looking at renting my own place for a year and willing to do a separation as a last ditch effort. I moved in to her house when we got married and everything is in her name from the house, the deed, and all the bills. We have separate bank accounts and share paying bills out of those accounts. We have no children together. My question is if I leave am I responsible for paying for anything? She made it on her own before and can now. Regardless of if this ends in divorce or separation what if anything am I responsible for?
    Thanks

    Perhaps. It will depend upon your relative financial situation, the amount of money it takes to support the marital home, the length of your marriage, and other factors not known to us. You should discuss your situation in detail with a divorce lawyer.
