PROPERTY DIVISION
John Negley, Esq., CFLS
Certified Family Law Specialist (CFLS) and Principal of Negley Law, APC
ATTORNEY IN VENTURA REPRESENTATION FROM AN EXPERIENCED DIVORCE FIRM
The state of California requires that all property and debt that is acquired during a marriage is equally divided amongst the spouses. This can be a complex and time consuming process due to the need to divide community property and determine the worth of property. Property division can become even more difficult if there is hostility between spouses and they cannot reach agreements on their own.
If this is the case, a judge will have to make the determinations regarding marital property and how it will be distributed between the parties. California uses 'community property' as the property division method, rather than equitable distribution like many other states. If you have questions regarding your property and the way that California will divide it, contact a divorce attorney from Negley Law, APC.
