Property Division
When going through divorce, making an assumption about how property will be divided is a risky proposition. You need the help of a seasoned property division lawyer who will analyze all of the relevant details and craft a legal strategy to protect your rights. Asset distribution in a California divorce requires a thorough review of all of the potential assets. Determining what assets are community property, separate property, evaluating the debts in the marriage, finding the true and fair market value of assets, and addressing the individual goals of our clients are all steps that our attorneys diligently assess in each case.
