No. The Court would work towards determining what is a “just and equitable” division of the matrimonial assets.

To do this, the Court will have to consider various factors including the financial as well as non-financial contributions of the parties, the needs of any children, any agreement between the parties etc. So, depending on the circumstances of the case, it may be just and equitable for the court to order that a party receive more than 50% of the matrimonial assets.

No. The issues of maintenance and access are separate and the care-giver parent (i.e. the one having care and control of the child) cannot restrict access in retaliation for failure to pay maintenance by the other parent. If a party fails to pay the maintenance ordered by Court, then there are avenues available to enforce the maintenance order.
