Here in Washington state, I assure you while you might be able to demand, there are still rules on the books that make a 50/50 split not automatic. Especially if you happen to live in the eastern, more conservative part of the state, the judges here are more sympathetic to "traditional" family values and so are still very much aware of those guidelines. I am not a lawyer, consult a lawyer, but having been through this myself within the past few years, I know very much that even something that should be as obvious as a 50/50 split is not obvious in the eyes of the law.
Or said another way - even if he has the legal right, that doesn't mean he necessarily has the budget to fight it. Unfortunately, I found that Might Makes Right is a real thing in family law.
