Some Examples of Asset Division

Assets considered marital versus separate property

Property Division in Divorce

During divorce proceedings, parties must divide both physical property and non-physical assets. Our team can help you seek a solution that is beneficial for both parties. 

Common Assets Divided

In a divorce, the most common assets distributed between parties include:

  • Real property, including any and all homes or land owned
  • Personal property, such as vehicles
  • Shared or individual funds, such as bank accounts
  • Retirement or investment accounts
  • Business entities or interests
  • Intellectual property
  • Home furnishings, including small kitchen appliances and furniture
  • Debt

In regards to real and personal property, it does not matter whose name is on the title. If these items were legally acquired and jointly used during marriage, they are considered "marital property." However, assets that were acquired prior to marriage or those that were gifted specifically to one party are considered separate property. Separate property can include items such as inheritance or jewelry.

Division of Complicated Assets

Oftentimes, assets extend past real and personal property, which can make a divorce settlement more complicated. Some parties own a business together or have made multiple joint investments. Many share retirement accounts and have named their spouse as a beneficiary for pension plans and other policies. The Dadvocates have extensive knowledge of complex assets, including:

  • Stocks, bonds, and trusts
  • Division of a business
  • Division of any future income earned on assets (such as interest on investments)
