You may have a 50% ownership or you may have nothing. It depends on whether they are his sole and separate property or if they are community property. You need to consult with a local attorney regarding the details to help you figure it out.

Going through divorce, my name alone is on the deed of the house, does my husband get half?

J Matthew Catchick
Answered by attorney J Matthew Catchick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Catchick Law, P.C.
Just because your name is the only name on the deed does NOT necessarily mean your husband is not entitled to anything. Generally speaking, subject to many exceptions, the husband should have a claim to half of the increase in equity that occurred in the house (if any) during the course of the marriage, assuming the husband and wife both lived in and treated the house as the marital home during the marriage. Equity is calculated by subtracting the balance of the mortgage and any other liens (like a home equity line of credit or a second mortgage) from the fair market value of the house.

Can I get divorce even if we are married overseas and how long will it take?

Answered by attorney Amanda Bowden Johnson
Divorce lawyer at The Houser Law Firm, P.C.
Where you got married is irrelevant the important thing is where your spouse lives for purposes of serving the divorce paperwork. If your spouse is living overseas, this could be a problem because they will most likely have to be served in accordance with the Hauge Convention. That could be expensive and time consuming. If your spouse lives anywhere in the good 'ol US of A getting a divorce is pretty easy-peasy. Of course if you separated sometime in January of 2013 you will not be eligible to file for divorce in North Carolina until sometime in January or February of 2014.
