[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should get what you contributed, that’s fair.[/quote] It doesn't work that way because marriage is a contract and marital property is owned jointly, no matter who worked for pay to accumulate it. OP, you need a lawyer and you should walk away with half.[/quote] that is not entirely true. Maryland is an equitable distribution state so Maryland judges will not split assets 50/50. OP contributed a small amount to the down payment of the house, so she should not receive 50% of the down payment of the house. She should get about 1/3 of the saving and her % contribution of the down payment. I'd settle for $50K. They have been married <5 years and has no kids. Judges don't give you money for stress, there is no way to quantify it. [/quote]
