My husband earned his pension prior to our marriage. We have been living off the earnings during our marriage. Do I have to repay after a divorce?

According to California Community Proprrty laws, you each have 50% interest in all assets obtained and debts incurred during marriage, assuming there is no prenuptial or premarital agreement between you and your husband stating otherwise. Generally, you do not have to return the money spent during marriage whether the source is through pension, wages, salary or other means. I hope this answers your questions. However, l suggest that you consult with an attorney to get more specific answers that will apply to your case. You May contact our office to schedule a telephonic consultation.
