The site contains quite a bit of general information about California Family Law, Tenants' Rights, and Juvenile Dependencies, as well as information about me (education, experience, et cetera) and my office (location, hours, fees, policies).

NOW, IN RESPONSE TO YOUR INQUIRY --

The facts that you have provided are not clear enough and/or complete enough to provide a definitive answer to you inquiry; however, if I were you I would argue that the expenditures you described were NON reimbursable gifts to the community. Was the inheritance comingled? And why are you using a mediator with so much money involved and you not knowing the law?

Thanks for sharing your interesting inquiry with us on LawGuru, and good luck with your case.

Uaually an appraiser is used. I think you should get an attorney to negotiate this matter as it could cost you a lot of money. If you have no money and your husband does, you can get him to pay some or all of your fees by law. Good luck, mark.
