Hi Dramlouie, thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry to hear you’re going through a difficult time. I believe we have already spoken on the phone but thought it would be useful for others to read the response in case others are in a similar position to you.
In short, you do not have to give your husband half. The law does not have a defined formula for dividing assets. To make fair agreements between you, you must think about what the courts in England & Wales take into consideration: income, earning capacity and property as well as financial needs, obligations, and responsibilities. The starting pointing is a 50/50 split. But if one of you has a greater need, for example, because you are housing the children or earn a lot less, then the split may differ.
