Car Payment
My ex boyfriend helped me purchase
a car by giving me money for the
down payment and paying the car
payment every month because we
have a child. We had no contract or
verbal agreement in place as far as
repayment and the vehicle is in my
name. He is now saying that he
wants the money that he put into
the car back. Do I have to pay him if
we had no contract? Also I was told
that he can possibly be made to
continue to make car payments since
he verbally stated he would make
them as long as I pay my insurance.
Is this true? The car is too expensive
for me to keep on my own

If you had an agreement with your ex-boyfriend, it has the same effect whether you put it in writing or it was just verbal. However, should you decide to sue for breach of contract, a written agreement may be easier to prove than a verbal agreement. You should immediately consult your own attorney to protect your legal rights.
