Legal Question in Family Law in Nevada
Community property
I bought a home in December, 1999. I married in January, 2000, but still kept title only in my name. I am getting divorced and have since sold that home (in September, 2004). I am wondering how much of what I made on that home is my husband entitled to?

Re: Community property
Any increase in equity between the time of the marriage and the time of the divorce would be considered community property and have to be divided equally unless there is a prenuptial agreement. Title is irrelevant in a community property state unless separate property is involved.
