Legal Question in Family Law in New York
transfer of assets before divorce
I am unfortunately in the edge of getting divorced. I found that my sponse has been transfering assets (those we earned after our marriage) under my in-law's name (some transfer was done a year ago). Will those assets still be considered as our marital property, i.e. I will have 50% of that? Or do I not have the right for those assets anymore? Thank you for your advice.

Yes, you still have rights to an unauthorized (by you) transfer of marital property. Make sure you have sufficient proof of same.
