I have ben in a relationship for 12 years recently split up we were engaged 2 children together he has put everything in his name and I'm out with nothing not even a car do I have any chance of getting anything?



Answer

Community property rights in family law exist only if you are married or have a valid domestic partnership. With that being said, if you can trace money you put into any of the property, you may be entitled to reimbursement or to ownership of that traced asset in a civil lawsuit. As to the children, it would be appropriate to file a petition for paternity in order to set up the parenting relationship as well as establish child support. Please meet with a skilled family law attorney to explore your legal options.
