Your situation brings up a few conflicting general principals. The first is that inherited property is not subject to equitable distribution - which would mean that you would not be entitled to any part of the property. Another principal would be that any property that serves as your marital residence is, at the very least, partially subject to equitable distribution - meaning that you would be entitled to make a claim against the property, but the value of the claim may be limited. Another principal may allow you to make some claim based on how much you contributed to the property with assets that were solely in your name. As you can see from the above, the answer to your question is not easy and would clearly change based on particular facts and circumstances that apply to your situation.

Keep in mind that this answer is given based on the scanty information you have provided. My answer may change based on other information. Further, you cannot rely on this answer since you have not retained me as your attorney. To be sure that you have accurate information and direction, you should consult with an attorney. Good luck.
