Asset Division
If you are going through a divorce, you are probably concerned about the distribution of your property. In California, property acquired during marriage is considered community property, and should be divided between spouses accordingly. Factors such as the increase in value or real estate and retirement accounts will also be included, with the exception of gifts and inheritances.
