What is the name of your state? Texas
My husband and I have been married for three years. We both work and share one bank account along with all of the bills. We each have one child prior to this marriage. When we married, he had a home and I had a home. After I moved in to his house, we sold my house and deposited the profit into our bank account. Any time we argue, he tells me to leave "his" house - he believes he can lock me out any time he wants (he did this to his ex-wife) and if we divorce, the house is his, free and clear because it is "separate property". Does the court compensate a woman in this situation to help purchase a new home for herself and her child, due to the fact that a home was given up for the marriage? What can I do now to protect myself and my son?
