What I will do for you

Marital property includes all assets acquired during the marriage. After a divorce it must be divided, either by agreement or through the courts. A correct division protects your interests.

  • Analysis of what does or does not belong to the marital property
  • Calculating shares and valuing disputed assets
  • Preparing an agreement on dividing marital property
  • Initiating court proceedings to divide marital property
  • Real estate, businesses and debts in marital property
  • Protection against debt liability arising from marital property

The most common disputes when dividing marital property, and how to resolve them

Dividing marital property tends to be the source of the most heated disputes in divorce proceedings. The most common issues concern real estate (who keeps the flat, how to compensate the other spouse), mortgage loans (refinancing, transfer), business interests and pension savings. Crucially, the division must take place within 3 years of the divorce, otherwise a statutory presumption applies that is disadvantageous to both spouses. Reaching an agreement is the best way to avoid a lengthy court dispute.
