Legal Question in Family Law in California

Divorce

Hi

I've been married for 12 years.

My wife asked me for divorce. Since the very beginning we had separate bank accounts and paid most family expences 50/50. However I was the one who paid for travel, entertainment, furniture, etc.

I had started another savings account, totally on my deposits.

My question: is my wife eligible for part of my savings, and what exceptions there could be?
