Navigating Property Division After Divorce: Ensuring Fair Distribution of Assets

A woman who divorced her husband after 17 years of marriage is questioning her entitlement to a share of the profit from the sale of their home, which was purchased during their marriage. Despite her name being added to the deed, the home was not mentioned in the divorce decree. The advice she received to not put her name on the loan raises suspicions, and she may be entitled to a portion of the profit. Seeking legal advice is recommended, as the statute of limitations may affect her ability to contest the division of assets.
