Marital Property Vs Separate Property Division

Marital Property

Property that was acquired during the marriage is referred to as marital property. That includes real estate, furniture, appliances, bank accounts, retirement accounts and other “stuff” accumulated during the marriage.

Separate Property

Separate property is property that was acquired prior to the marriage. There are some special circumstances in which property received during the marriage can be considered separate properties.
Marital property is typically divided between the parties. The Court divides the property in an equitable manner. Although equitable typically is often interpreted as equal, it does not always work that way. In addition, it is possible that separate property can become marital property in some instances.
