Divorce proceedings often involve the complex and emotionally charged process of asset division. At GPS Law Group, we understand the intricacies involved in this aspect of divorce and provide comprehensive legal guidance to help our clients navigate through it. This post explores the key considerations in asset division during divorce proceedings and how our legal team can assist.
Understanding Equitable Distribution
Asset division in divorce is typically governed by the principle of equitable distribution. This doesn’t necessarily mean equal division but rather a fair distribution based on various factors. Our attorneys help clients understand how equitable distribution works and what it means for their specific situation.
Identifying Marital vs. Separate Property
A critical step in asset division is distinguishing between marital and separate property. Marital property includes assets acquired during the marriage, while separate property refers to assets owned before the marriage or received as gifts or inheritances. Our team assists in accurately categorizing these assets to ensure a fair division.
Valuing and Dividing Complex Assets
Divorces can involve complex assets like businesses, real estate, retirement accounts, and investments. Proper valuation and division of these assets require legal and financial expertise. Our attorneys work with financial experts to ensure all assets are valued accurately and divided fairly.
Negotiating Settlement Agreements
Negotiating a settlement agreement is often the most efficient way to handle asset division. Our team is skilled in negotiating agreements that protect our clients’ interests while aiming for an amicable resolution. We focus on creating settlements that are equitable and sustainable.
