That's a very big question but unfortunately you haven't given enough information for any solicitor to be able to answere it. Your partner should make an appointment to see a solicitor for an initial consultation. He will get a good idea of what sort of settlement his wife can expect and how much it will all cost. Matrimonial law is complicated and there is no substitute for proper advice. This kind of question simply cannot be answered in a forum like this because the answere depends on lots of different factors.

However, there is some useful information on my website:
