I have received a Petition for Partition of Real Estate that my ex-husband and I own. How do I respond so that I am not going to be taken advantage of? I want to either sell it or for him to pay me an equitable amount for my interest.

This is not something I ever recommend that a lay person handle themselves. Immediately contact an attorney with experience in such matters. You have limited time because your ex-husband will get a default in 21 - 28 days depending on whether you were served in person or by certified mail.

You will need a real estate lawyer to assist you. Partition actions are too complicated to handle on your own.
