Based on what you have written and the fact that you have an attorney representing you, your current attorney should answer this question. Typically, when one party to a divorce can prove that the other party to a divorce was the fault for the divorce; then the injured party can request a disproportionate part of the community estate upon the divorce being granted by the Court.
