Re: divorce

She will be entitled to half of the marital assets (assets acquired during the marriage) and whatever individual property she brought with her into the marriage. The home should remain yours since, according to what you say, it was yours when you got married and she didn't contribute to its expenses or maintenance.

She should not be entitled to alimony because of the very shor marriage and because she apparently can support herself.
