Am I liable for bills if my partner won't pay?
If the bills are in your partner's sole name, you're not liable for them if your partner doesn't pay. There still may be problems because, of course, if those bills are for utilities, like gas or electricity or water, then effectively you may be required to pay them in order to maintain those services to your home. The fact that the bills are in your partner's sole name doesn't mean to say that in practice you don't need to pay them in order to keep those services supplied to your home.
