Divorce lawyer at Vincent D. Sowerby
At present the house is titled in his name, so it is his house, unless there is an agreement that you should have some interest therein. If you marry and he agrees, then he can deed it from him to ya'll, thereby converting a non-marital asset into a marital asset subject to equitable division upon divorce. Of course, he can always do that even if you do not marry. Basically, ya'll can do whatever you want, subject only to any potential due on sales clause in the deed to secure debt or promissory note.

What should I do if I can't get my spouse served and he refuses to sign the waiver?

Divorce lawyer at Cathy R. Cook, Attorney at Law
I'm sure your attorney is doing everything she can to get service. Unless you can hire a process server to try to catch up with him, this is a difficult thing to accomplish. If you could get him to come see the children for a particular event, the attorney might be able to get sheriff service, if you can't hire a process server.

You would need your spouse's last known address, make reasonable attempts to locate him in order to serve him (ie. Attempted process service, mail check, DOT check) Once you've done this then you can petition the Court for service of process via legal publication.
