Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

community property
I am considering a divorce; I bought my condo which is in my own name; not the present name that I purchased with the equity of my other condo; purchased before I re-married.Is it safe to say that I cannot be forced to sell my condo and split the profits? I want him out; this is my condo even though he works and puts money into the house. Also, I received an inheritance from my mom who just passed away which is in a trust; can he go after any monies that I get; if--name removed--where can I put them to keep for my future; there are no children; I am 61 and he is 74. Please email me back hopefully with positive news. I would have no problem giving him most of the furniture, pots, kitchen stuff, towels, etc. I can buy new and pay cash for it, no problem. We have nothing to split. My car is a 2995 lease and his is paid off, a 10 year old Ford. I just want to be by myself; the age difference is too much for me; he is a manic depressive guy with a nasty temper that he got after radiation for prostate cancer; and his obsession for canned goods is overwhelming for me and my cabinets; help me please. Thanks.

Re: community property

Florida is not a community property state. Florida does hve equitable distribution. I suggest you retain counsel.
