Preparing To Divide Your Marital Assets

If you are ready to embrace the challenge of attending to your divorce situation proactively, one of the first things you’ll want to do is to make a list of all of your marital assets. Marital assets—including physical property, financial accounts, and intellectual property—generally consist of all assets acquired during the length of a couple’s marriage.

Once you’ve created this list, spend some time thoughtfully considering which—if any—of your assets you’d be inclined to fight for, which you’d desire but are not worth fighting for, and which you’d be willing to part with. Keep in mind that an equitable divorce settlement will likely result in something close to a 50/50 split of your total asset value. For example, if you opt to keep the house, your spouse may opt to keep the value of your retirement assets that mirrors the value of your home. Making this list thoughtfully now will help our team to assess your needs, wants, and priorities concerning asset division. This exercise will help us to advise you and to build a strong divorce strategy that advances your interests.
