Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania
Engagement ring in divorce
I recently read that the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania decreed that the donor should always get the ring back if the engagement is broken off, regardless of who broke it off or why. My wife and I are getting a divorce, am I legally entitled to the engagement ring?

Re: Engagement ring in divorce
The ring is given in anticipation of marriage. Once you marry, the ring is hers.
