The Property Division Process
Depending on the specific circumstances of the couple's financial situation, the task of dividing marital property can range from relatively simple to highly complex. Property division is a three step process: marital property must be identified, valued and divided on some basis.
Even in a simple case, complications can make the identification of marital property more difficult. For example, separate property can become intermingled and transformed into marital property, such as when a couple combine their separate savings to buy a house. These transformations must be traced and sorted out.
Complex Property Division Issues
I have experience in many of the complex property division issues that can arise in divorce. These include:
- Deciding what to do when a house is worth less than the mortgage
- Property division involving ownership of a privately-owned business
- And other property division issues
When necessary, I consult with professionals in various disciplines such as business valuation analysts, real estate brokers and others who can provide insights and knowledge regarding particular issues that arise.
My goal in your case will be to achieve a property settlement that protects your rights and interests to the fullest extent possible, and which enables you to make a successful transition to life after divorce.
