This really depends on the state you live in. some have it so
your personal property in your own name can not be brought into the
value of the marriage finance in <SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">which</SPAN> the court rules who get
house or how much money. the house house was purchased before the
legal binding of each others assets <SPAN style="POSITION:
static" textContent="null">which</SPAN> even adds more
states who feel it would be up to <SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">challenge</SPAN> <SPAN
style="POSITION: static" textContent="null">whether</SPAN>
or not it is his right or property of the union of marriage. Other
States include all assets of both parties in divorce <SPAN
style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">discussions</SPAN> including vehicles,
credit debt whether it is in his name or yours only, how much each
person makes and cost of living where either party is currently
residing. these states often figure total property assets and
fiscal assets and divide them equally, <SPAN style="POSITION:

person getting paid the most money have to also pay <SPAN
style="POSITION: static" textContent="null">alimony</SPAN>
to keep the <SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">standard</SPAN> of living for both
parties the same as it was <SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">during</SPAN> marriage, only to be
negated by future marriage of the paid <SPAN style="POSITION:

of both parties are often split down the middle, this is where some
<SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">people</SPAN> play there dirty tactic
and run up debt knowing it won't all fall on there shoulders.
My suggestion is to look at your own states laws and get a good
attorney. Ask advice about these topics and come up with a good
plan with some one who knows the system. Try to come up with a give
and take decision to go to <SPAN style="POSITION: static"
textContent="null">mediations</SPAN> with, deciding to
settle on your own with out judgment of the court is <SPAN
style="POSITION: static" textContent="null">usually</SPAN>
best and harbors less bad feeling making it more comfortable for
kids and leaving both happier then feeling oppressed buy a judge
who is going to rule straight down state guide lines with out
serious consideration to emotional attachments to objects.
