She should only get what you build together for the seven years, and not what you had before you married her. I think that's fair.

You say you a lawyer, you know that you aren't the first and won't be the last. If you was my Daddy or brother you know that 7 months was to soon you knew she was a golddigger and you married her anyway.

No it's not fair I wouldn't take anything from you because like you said you work for all this before her so she's not entitled to anything you worked hard for a real woman wouldn't I would let that motivate me to do like you did work 10 times harder to get where you are ijs but that's me though not every woman gone have the same mindset as I do or any other just sorry you have to go through that

Bruh know who you are marrying before you say I do, a good lawyer would know better, learn from your mistakes and move forward with a smile, life isn’t fair or easy!!!

They changed the half laws! She only gets half of what you earned from the time y’all married! Research the law! Was repealed after Johnny Carson’s divorce!

The only thing that I think she deserves is what she came into the relationship with.

"Hurt dogs will holler." You are in this situation because you did not protect what you worked so hard for. You are the one who went to law school. You are the one who chose to make her your wife after 7 months. Although I empathize with you, if you had properly weighed your assets and liabilities, you would not be on video lamenting over your poor judgment.

I can guarantee that when he told his friends or family that he was marrying a woman he only knew for 7 months one or a few of them told him that was a bad idea and he did it anyway. FAFO

It’s not fair. The a lot of things in life is not fair and if you are a lawyer and asked her for a prenup and she said no, it was an issue. You should’ve never married her the first place and they say money is the root of all evil

Should have wrote up a prenup. Then the ex could only get a lump sum of money. Now your ex can get a bigger percentage of what was earned during the marriage. Not having an agreement is biting you in the ass now.

exactly. he had to have her and didn't care that he really didn't know her well in all fairness he got what he wanted and it was her. but if state law dictates she's entitled to half negotiate something fair and be done with it. it's not always cheaper to keep her either. just be fair and stop crying about it now. he could have had a post nuptial agreement. BE FAIR TO HER AND BE FAIR TO YOURSELF AND YOUR CHILDREN IF THERE ARE ANY. be at peace that whatever is happening now will be over.

man or woman doesn't matter. if you had what you have now and you are in a community property state I believe for the marital years only what was accumulated should be community property and divided equally property or monetary is indeed fair. even though a prenuptial was not made i think thus is fair.
