Complex property division in California

In California, marital property is divided in divorce. Property that is owned individually by a spouse ("separate property") includes property owned individually before marriage and property expressively gifted to one spouse during marriage. Separate property is not subject to property division, but may come into play if it has contributed to or generated marital property.

Our law firm is highly skilled in dividing complex assets in divorce:

  • Pensions
  • 401(k) plans
  • IRA
  • Retirement accounts
  • Investments
  • Stocks
  • Real estate
  • Businesses
  • Debts

We have the sophistication and resources necessary to handle the most complex of divorce cases. When complex property division issues come into play, we apply our experience in seeking the best possible results on behalf of a client.
