Re: wedding ring
An engagement ring is a gift made in contemplation of marriage. If the wedding did not occur, you are entitled to the return of the ring.

Re: wedding ring
Yes, you are entitled to get the ring back. Both the engagement ring and the wedding ring are considered to be "gifts in contemplation of marriage". You can bring a lawsuit to get the rings back. Our office handles this type of litigation, but only for high-value gifts. You may contact our office for a consultation by calling 212-267-7000.
