Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
My husband & I married last year, but have lived together for 8 years. Nothing is in my name. If we divorce. What rights do I have if any? Plus, he adopted my son last year. Can I have the adoption overturned?

You have a right to a reasonable division of the community property, (usually half), that was acquired during the marriage (one year). Community property does not include gift or inheritance. If the adoption was legal and enforceable, then it is unlikely that you will get it overturned.
