Yes. Retain an attorney. In MA all property of the parties is considered marital property to which each party has a right to claim an equal 50% share. Good Luck!
I think generally you will have to start with the presumption that - in a marriage as short as two years - both parties will be expected to leave the marriage with essentially the same property and assets they entered it with. This starting place is subject to many many variations that will depend entirely on the facts and circumstances of your relationship.
You should give our office a call to briefly discuss your situation. An attorney can ask you the right questions and give you some idea of the most cost-effective way forward, as well as some idea of what a court may do with your specific situation.
