Property That Is Subject to Division

It is easy to think of property as something tangible, such as a home or a car. While these certainly fit the definition of property, they are not the only things that will be divided in a divorce. For example, investments and retirement accounts are also subject to division, along with any debts that were accumulated during the marriage. Whether or not any of these types of property will actually be divided between a couple depends on whether it meets the definition of marital property.

Marital property, simply put, is property that is acquired during the length of the marriage and will be subject to division. Separate property, on the other hand, is usually not subject to division and may include property acquired before the marriage, as well as any gifts or inheritances. Our Trenton investment division attorney will take a close look at your assets in order to determine whether certain types of property may or may not be subject to division.

It is possible to reach a property division agreement outside of the courtroom through methods such as alternative dispute resolution. With more than 25 years of experience, you can count on the legal team at the law offices of Robert D. Paulbeck, Attorney at Law, to protect your interests either in negotiation or through traditional courtroom litigation.
