  • Verbal contract claim

    Ex claiming a verbal contract loan isn’t paid back

    I’m in England
    The Basics!!

    Ex lent me money, to pay debts, which I agreed to pay back if/when I sold house

    This changed when I built her an extension, providing much of the materials, and all the labour, plus she received a lump sum, basically it covered the loan.

    Now, a few years later, she’s trying to claim the loan back, saying we had a verbal agreement to pay it, and trying to force me to sell my house!!
    She got me arrested for fraud 3 years ago, but the cops chucked it out as they knew about the extension I’d built.

    Her solicitor has sent me her bank statements, but she’s edited out the payment I gave her, although it still shows on the balance!! Plus payments to random other names are claimed as payments to me?

    I’m speechless why her solicitor hasn’t told her how ridiculous it all seems, but still a little worried as to her winning!! Anyone any advice?

    I’m seeing a solicitor this week, I have 10 days left to reply to the claim.

    One thing I’ll add, she is mentally very unstable, and has threatened suicide many times when I dated her.
    I haven’t seen or heard from her for 2 years +

    She also claimed I was the Father of her son who is 29, yet won’t attend a paternity test!!
    She also destroyed my marriage 6 years ago, she’s a pathological liar as well!!

    How much are we talking about?
    When was the loan made?

    Regarding the payments to other random persons.... presumably by cheque or bank transfer... should be possible to show they weren't credited to an account owned you
