If you're talking about clothing, razor and other small stuff, probably that would work. You might re-post for a family law practitioner.

In most situations, if you telephone the police, they will accompany you to obtain your things.

Calling the police may work for basic possessions. If this applies to your situtation, a divorce or legal separation proceeding would resolve personal property issues before all was said and done. My rates are reasonable and I offer free consultations.
