In Florida, all of the assets and liabilities (debt) acquired during the marriage must be divided equitably — meaning in a fair, but not necessarily equal manner. With more than 18 years' experience handling marital property division concerns for clients, lawyer Caryn Van Matre has the skills and the knowledge of property division laws to help you obtain a fair property and debt division settlement.
Realistic Expectations and Planning for Your Future
Our family law attorney can help educate you on what is and is not jointly owned marital property and let you know what to expect as a potential outcome of your property division. Ms. Van Matre believes that setting realistic expectations provides a level of reassurance that makes it easier on clients to plan for their lives and their futures after divorce.
Non-marital property is defined as assets incurred by one spouse prior to marriage. Inheritances designated to one spouse only during the marriage are also considered non-marital property.
Assets and Debt Divided Equitably
Marital assets and liabilities that can be divided include:
- Real estate property, including the home in which you live
- Cars
- Pensions and annuities
- Retirement plans
- Businesses
- Debt
It is essential that you gather all documents relating to property and other assets and debt so that they can be included as marital property or separated out as non-marital property.
Your settlement agreement in large part depends on the preparation of your attorney. Lawyer Caryn Van Matre is diligent in her preparation related to all aspects of divorce, mindful of the important role it can play in the outcome of every aspect of your divorce.
