Post: Complex International divorce

OK, this will be a long one... I am writing on behalf of
my girlfriend, She is from the Czech Republic, and married
to a german. They got married in the U.S., and had the
marriage validated in their home countries. She is here on
an E-2 investors visa as the spouse of the primary holder.
The primary holder (her husband), formed an LLC company
the visa is based on. They have since seperated, and we
have now learned the following:
She was never made part of the LLC. (She was under the
impression she was under the impression she was an equal
partner in the company, but public records indicate this
is not the case.
Also, she was never paid, not one penny, for the last 5
years while working for him for the LLC.
He is attempting to force her to pay half of the debt of
the company, taxes both domestic and foreign, has seized
both of their cars, her personal belongings, etc.
We need to know the following:
What money is she entitled to from him personally?
What money is she entitled to based on the fact she was
never paid, and not on the company (which makes her an
employee).
Basically he is twiting the corporate debt into his
personal debt and trying to hold her responsible for it.
Its really complex, but that is the basics of it, without
writing a book.
Any advice here?
Thanks
