Firestone, CO Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

It depends on how long you are married. If you get divorced after 6 months, chances are it will be your home. If you live together for 10 years and have a couple of kids, it may be transmuted into community property. Also, if you are still paying on the mortgage, the funds you use to pay the mortgage are community funds and half of what you pay for principle may belong to your wife even if the house does not become community property. So, if you want it clear that it is your sole and separate property regardless of what happens in the future, you do nee a pre-nuptial agreement that specifies that. It is not cheap but it may be cheaper than what you will pay in a divorce.

The only grounds for divorce is irreconcilable differences. The court never hears about cheating unless it affects the children. You are entitled to one-half of the community property acquired during marriage regardless of your sex life.
