One way the wife can protect family assets is by ensuring that assets are held in her name only or in a trust that she controls. It may also be advisable for the husband to transfer assets to the wife before any legal action is taken, while keeping in mind the legality and implications of such transfers. Seeking legal advice is crucial to determine the best course of action based on the specific circumstances of the lawsuit.
