Typically you are both entitled to a portion (usually half) of all marital assets and debt....so you get some of his and he gets some of yours...

My understanding is all marital assets are 50/50.

Yes you are entitled to 50%, but its difficult to get from his personal bank accounts.  You have to hire an attorney and forensic accountant to get the bank account numbers.  Its a very expensive process that takes time, but may be worth it if there is a lot of money involved.  It can end up just costing you a lot of money if it ends up being a small amount.  Hopefully he will just disclose the amounts voluntarily.

Only if he is entitled to your personal property too .
