Legal Question in Family Law in New York
Hi - If I partner with someone from my family/friends to purchased Real Estate while married, what happens if I get divorce in the future? Does my husband get half of the half? Also want to find out if I have a joint account at the bank with my parents,what will happen to the money there if I get divorce. Thank you

ANYTHING acquired during the marriage is marital property, unless it was bequest to you. If you purchased it with "separate property" money then maybe not. There are loopholes so you should consult with an attorney.
