August 19, 2010 12:03 pm LegalQuestion: If I am going to get Divorce in Chicago, will my wife or husband be eligible to the properties that I acquired in other nations?
Answer: No matter where you got wed since if you live in the U.S. for a long timeright now, it will be the state laws of this country that can determine the divisionof asset. The first issue that needs to be resolved is by finding out whether yourproperty is conjugal or separate. It’s possible that a separate property can be seen as marital property through the years of marriage. To ascertain that the asset is separate, it must be solely in your control as well as ownership.
