Disputes may arise when dividing debt and property during a divorce. One common cause of disputes is the question of whether property or debt is marital or pre-marital.
Pre-marital assets and liabilities are acquired or incurred prior to marriage, while marital assets and liabilities are acquired or incurred during the marriage. A pre-marital asset may become a marital asset if the other spouse's name is added to the property's title or asset's account. If so, then the spouse who originally solely owned the property or account may ask the Court for an unequal division of the asset based upon their pre-marital ownership of it.
There are many factors involved in making this determination. The same applies to a pre-marital debt which has been transferred into both spouses' names. We will work with you to build a strong case for the equitable division of your assets and liabilities.
We resolve the property and debt division of both simple and complex property divorce cases. We work as needed with other financial professionals including forensic accountants to uncover hidden assets and vocational evaluators to determine income imputation for an unemployed spouse. Assets to be divided include:
- Marital residence and other real estate
- Retirement and pension accounts
- Military pensions
- Bank accounts, stocks/bonds, mutual funds
- Businesses
