Bergen County Property Distribution Attorney
Division of marital and personal property
Property distribution can be a complicated matter for couples to resolve. Many times, a couple has a difference of opinion on how the assets of the marriage should be divided when it is time to split. If a couple cannot come to an agreement outside of court, New Jersey must follow the guidelines of equitable distribution. Every divorce case comes with different factors. Every situation is unique. Equitable distribution is a term that establishes what is fair and just to parties based on many factors of the marriage. Property distribution is rarely a 50/50 split, as some believe. A court will consider many aspects of the marriage before coming to a decision regarding the allocation.
