Marital Property Basics

I genuinely believe that transparency during a divorce can reduce conflict and legal fees. In most jurisdictions, the "marital estate" includes all assets and debts acquired during the marriage, regardless of whose name is on the title. Pre-marital assets or inheritances are often considered "separate property," but this can vary by state.

Two Main Systems:

  • Community Property: Assets are generally split exactly 50/50. States like California, Texas, and Washington follow this rule.
  • Equitable Distribution: The court divides assets in a way that is "fair" but not necessarily equal, considering factors like the length of the marriage and each person's earning power.
