Will my wife get 1/2 of the house I purchased before we got married if I get divorce?

Unless you paid cash for the house and haven't made any payments, improvements, etc. since you got married, at least part of the house has been paid for with community funds, so at least part of its value is community property. She may not get half, but the judge will have the legal authority to give her something if there's any equity there. You need a lawyer to help you sort it out. Good luck.

TX - Uncontested Divorce filing w/real property. We are hoping to find a friendly way to use a single attorney to help us divorce

Generally, an attorney will represent one party to the divorce but not both.  That said, some attorneys are willing to draft the decree based on the instructions of the parties.   Based on your inquiry, it appears you will need a divorce decree and documents regarding the real property (i.e., special warranty deed, deed of trust to secure assumption, etc.).   I think you have 2 choices:   1)  One of you hires an attorney who then drafts the final decree of divorce and the real estate related documents.  2)  You both hire an attorney to draft the documents based on your agreement(s).   The down side to option 2 is that the drafting attorney is essentially only a secretary drafting the documents and cannot give either of you legal advice.

The question of spousal maintenance is fact intensive, and you do not provide sufficient information for a meaningful answer. You should consult with an experienced family law attorney in your area to discuss this questions and the other issues involved in a dissolution matter.
