    The legal position is that any assets which either of you have are part of the 'matrimonial assets' and *can* be take into account.
    What other assets are there? Do either of you have pensions? If so, how are those being split? Do you earn roughly similar amounts? If not, who earns more.
    All savings will also be taken into consideration. OP you may feel you are "morally" losing out but unfortunately when you are married for a number of years the courts will look at the marital pot for splitting. So if you have savings you may be better off not rocking the boat and accept what is currently on the table.
