New here, my fairytale gone wrong

[Lifes Twists]

fth,

I am not sure that you don't own half of the successful business he has started. Even though you are separated you are still married. I asked my attorney a similar question about hypothetically winning the lottery after we were separated. He said even if she filed for divorce it would still be half hers till the divorce was final and suggested I not win till then. I suspect you may have a right to half of his assets or could at least argue for a portion of it. I would still argue the date that this started but also ask the lawyer if it really matters in relation to the business.
