      I have been trying to leave a coercive control / emotionally abusive relationship. Our relationship finished (detail removed by moderator) ago and we have a (detail removed by moderator) child.  We are not married but share a mortgage which has been the barrier to physically separating, he wouldn’t sell, then stalled buyers etc. (detail removed by moderator) and alleges I am the perpetrator abusing him and our daughter. His allegations are entirely unfounded.

      I have spoken with solicitors, the police and social workers and the systems seem to entirely enable him. It seems he can do as he pleases. How can this be? How do I ever get us safely away from him?

      Hi Yellowsky, it sounds like you are doing the right thing by talking to solicitors. They will be able to give you advice on the sale and division of the property, any other relevant financial matters and also the child arrangements once you have moved out of the house.

      Hopefully the house sale will go through shortly. If he refuses to sign paperwork for sale then the court can make an order to sign in his stead. Hope that won’t be necessary.

      If he is making accusations and the authorities are supporting him, then you need to be very careful how you behave to him and make sure you do nothing that can be seen as abusive. Speak to your solicitor about these allegations and any implications for you.
