    Ownership of home and divorce
    My fiancé and I have lived together for 4 1/2 years. The house we live in is in his name only. He built it himself and he had started building it 2 months before we met. We are getting married in 2 months and he is worried that if we ever get divorced I would get half of the house even if my name never goes on the deed. I told him that he is wrong. Who is correct. We live in New York.

    In divorce court almost anything can happen and one side asking for things they are not suppose to have is normal. ** people are on the hate side of life at divorce time. But as Scott said, if you sign a prenuptial before you get marrige he has more protection.
