Separating from H after 20 years. In process of selling house.
He has automatically assumed a 50/50 split of the proceeds from the sale and an offer of £250 in CM (slightly lower than CSA calculator).
I have £20k worth of debt and earn around £15k more than him per year. I will be moving to a rented property as I don't currently want to buy.
My mum has suggested that perhaps I should be getting more than a 50/50 split, but I'm not so sure.
My concern is that as I earn more than him and went down the legal route I could potentially end up with less than 50% due to his lower earnings.
I'm also concerned that if I went down the legal route he would most certainly play the 'woe is me' part with the kids (which he's done for the past few months) and I am concerned about the potential impact it could have on them.
Any suggestions! Thanks :)

Is it always 50/50 asset split?
