Re: divorce?

Well that is asking a lot with little details. But here is a simple answer. You are entitled to half of all assets obtained during the entire period unless it was a subject of a prenuptial agreement, inheritance or lottery winnings. If there was property in his or her name before the marriage that was paid off, it is not half yours. Same goes for you. You are also liable for half the debt incurred during the marriage. You are both entitled to each others half interest in retirement accounts. Also you or they may be getting or paying support for a very long time to the other. This is the best I can do with such a short amount of facts and without more details.
