If a woman owns everything when a man marries her, is he entitled to anything when they divorce?

You can't scam an honest man, so it sounds like there may be more to it than being set up. Regardless, you are entitled to one-half the community property. If she kept her assets separate from you, she probably has a good case that you can't touch them. On the other hand, to the extent that community funds were used to enhance or pay for her property, you may be entitled to one-half of that amount. I suggest you talk with a local attorney and see if there is anything for you. Oh, and if you signed a pre-nup and had the opportunity to run it by an attorney, then you are really out of luck.

Your marriage certificate is certainly valid. Under New York law in a divorce you would be entitled to child support, and, depending upon the circumstances, a share in the equity in the apartment and possibly spousal support.
