Re: Marital Assets
In a perfect world yes. However, it depends on several factors that we just cannot answer here. First, if your spouse had property (e.g.) house in his/her name before marriage, then you would be entitled to the increase in value over the marriage, etc. There are many other factors as well. Given that you mentioned pensions, retirement, stocks, etc. and the great length of your marriage, I strongly suggest that you meet with an attorney as soon as possible. If you have been served with a petition for dissolution, you have a limited time to answer. I hope this helps.
