Thanks for all the insight. My dad found this forum and decided to start calling me names and threatening me. I opted to put the money in a savings account until he is willing to provide receipts and apparently that makes me "lost" and in need of "help" -- So at this point it looks like no one will be receiving anything. Well, besides the house profit that he kept. So $40,000 towards a mortgage paid and I get to keep all of $0. It's so sad that he is willing to terminate his relationship with his child over money. Luckily my mom is a rockstar and she helped me feed the kiddos and pay my rent until I started working again :) 

At the end of the day I can't just send him money because he called me names and threatened me. I guess his religion is slightly different then the rest of ours right?!?! 

I talked to the adjuster and apparently it’s a law that it has to go to both. And I thought about a lawyer, but that’s an expensive approach to take over $35k. I’d end up paying half to an attorney, 

My dad is super religious so finding that isn’t going to help. He donates 10% of his income to the church but doesn’t worry about the fact that stealing from me means his grandkids can’t eat...I was backed into a corner and couldn’t afford a place to stay and a house payment while insurance reviewed. I’m just trying to figure out if the only option is refusing to sign the check, or is there other options? 

I’m insured so check is made to myself and mortgage company. Title was transferred to my dad. I am refusing to sign the check at this point as I don’t believe he should get the insurance money and the profit on the sale of the house. 

After a fire in my home, my dad had me sign a quick claim so he could start on repairs while insurance figured things out. Now he believes he’s entitled to the insurance payout and profit from the sale of the house. Check is made out to me and mortgage company. I had been paying the mortgage for years and am concerned about my investment.
