During the divorce process the couple must divide the property they acquired during the marriage. Oftentimes it is a simple process, but there are times when it is not.
California is known as a community property state and is divided equally. Any property that was obtained before the marriage is considered separate property and is not divided equally for the most part. There are exceptions to that rule, however. Your attorney can explain that to you.
Are you aware that some of your assets are complex? These would include, but are not limited to, business or professional assets, personal investments and retirement plan benefits.
If you are going through a divorce and need assistance with the division of your marital property, contact an experienced Orange County Divorce attorney who will make sure your property is properly valued and divided in the fairest way possible.
