In case of divorce is the wife entitled to half the property?

Christopher Michael Farish
Answered by attorney Christopher Michael Farish (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Quaid Farish, LLC
That is a complicated question.  The State of Texas operates under a community property presumption, which means that anything purchased during the marriage is presumed to be community property unless proven otherwise by a party.  It wouldn't matter whether your husband put the property only in his name or in both of your names because the fact that it was purchased during marriage would imply that it is community property.  If your husband has separate assets and purchases the home with those separate assets and he can prove those facts, then it would be beneficial for you to have the home in your name as well for a variety of reasons that are too numerous to list here.  The Court will divide all community property equitably, which may mean half and half, or it may mean something different.  The first question will be whether the home is community property, then, if it is community, the Court will determine how to equitably divide the house and all the other assets.

How can we legally document an amicable alimony increase?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Since alimony is contractual in nature, you and your ex-husband should consider having a contract prepared that outlines what his obligations are to you and how long the agreement will last as well as under what circumstances the agreement would be terminated. With a contract in place, you will have rights against your husband if he should default or if any confusion about the agreement arises. Contact a local attorney for a consultation as soon as you can.
