Divorce lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Did the other party agree to the divorce? If so, talk with him or her and find out if they have been supplied with the proposed stipulation. If not, then go to your attorney's office and ask why it hasn't happened. If you are not satisfied, call the Bar Association and file a complaint.

What happens to property purchased before marriage?

Answered by attorney Loren Paul Zahn (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Zahn Law Office
Property acquired prior to marriage is the property of the person you acquired it, absent a post-marital writing gifting it to the community. If the community made principal reduction payments on the real property during the marriage, then it acquires a pro-tanto interest in the property but the property should be awarded to the original owner, with a buyout of the community property interest. Property taxes aren't relevant to this issue.

You statement of "my name is on the paperwork" does not provide enough information to determine what interest, if any, you hold in the property. You should have a lawyer review the documents.
