Division of Property & Assets During Divorce

Division of property, also known as equitable distribution, is a judicial division of property rights and obligations between spouses during divorce. It may be done by agreement, through a property settlement, or by judicial decree. Usually the most valuable assets to be considered are the family home and pensions and other retirement plans.

The assets you own after the divorce or separation can make a big difference in the quality of your life after the marriage is over.

A good attorney can help you protect your rights when it comes to property division.
