How do I divorce my husband if I live in China and we got married in China?

Answered by attorney Jessica M Cotter (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Firm of Jessica M. Cotter, P.L.L.C.
If you are in China, and were married in China, the it would appear that the divorce court in China would have jurisdiction to, at the very least, dissolve your marriage. With respect to any claim you might have to the assets of your husband, that will depend on international law and treaty agreements between countries. I suggest that you speak with an attorney who is familiar with Chinese law on these matters.

Do I keep my house I purchased before the marriage?

Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
If the house was purchased with money you had before you got married, it is your separate property but you will owe your wife some reimbursement for payments made on it during the marriage. It doesn't really matter how title is held if both of your money was used to acquire the house.
