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.

What can I do if Spouse refuses to sign divorce papers?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
He does not have to sign paperwork for you to file for divorce. Once you have filed and served him with the paperwork, he has an opportunity to respond if he disagrees with anything you've requested. If he does not respond within the time permitted by law, you can ask the court to proceed by default (e.g. without his participation). If he does respond within the time and challenges anything you've requested, you can try to settle the case and if that does not work, you can ask the court to schedule a trial so the issues can decided and the divorce granted. I recommend you consult with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.
