Boyfriend Split

  My friend has been a couple for about 11 years. Her bf bought the home they live in,but he's abandoned her & the home. Can she legally take possession of the home? If she can-is there a waiting period? I'd hate to see her lose all her stuff because he was a dork & saddled her with everything.
Thanks
 
  Your friend needs to consult a lawyer immediately to see where she stands.  Sorry I can't be of more help.
