Dear Customer (name blocked for privacy),

Were you cohabiting?

How long were you together?

Did he intend them as gifts, or was he buying them for himself, and merely title them in your name.

Does his name appear on the titles?

he bought one for him and one for me. he was very abusive in the relationship and this was one of his sick ways to try to work it out. he has no lisence. i payed for the insurance on both from day one. neither are in his name. the truck he paid for but i traded my truck in he paid for the rest.

Dear Customer (name blocked for privacy),

Under the circumstances, it sounds to me l ike at least one truck was a gift.

However, since you wre living together, the cost of insurance, and other expenses appear to be comingled.

While there is no so called Pallimony in PA, youi still have a basis for equity based on contract law.

It sounds like, if you cannot come to terms with an equitable division of property that you will have to go to court and ask the court to decide.

Gifts are generally not retunable, unless the person can show by the evidence that it was not intended to be a gift, but a loan.

My advice is to take it to small claims caourt at least, or hire an attorney to file suit in probate court.
