I'm sorry to hear about your situation. You do have a case, but it won't be easy. First, he is not your legal husband. So you will not be able to file for divorce. However, California does allow a similar type of legal action for couples like yourself. But it is a high standard to meet to establish that you lived as husband and wife. For example, you need to show that your two carried yourself as husband and wife such as having a wedding, wearing a wedding ring, telling people that you are husband and wife, having joint accounts, things of that nature.
If you are able to establish the above, you may be considered as if you are married and get some or all of the beneifts of a married person. However, whether you will get 1/2 of the assets, I don't know. To answer that, I will need more information which must be done through a in-person consultation.
As for suing her, it is virtually impossible because she didn't do anything wrong. The only way you could possibly sue her is to claim that she and him conspired with each other to take your money. That will be almost impossible to prove.
Good luck.
