Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

My partner and I are buying the house that we live in from his ex-wife. We are going in halfsies....is there any way to protect my iniitial investment in case something happens to him or we separate? How do I insure that my initial investment will not be taken by my partner's children, ex-wire, or, in the event of our break-up, that he will not be vindictive and take my entire life savings?
