Financial Considerations  for California Divorce

During the dissolution of a marriage, separating the fiances that have become commingled over the years can be a complicated and frustrating process for someone trying to move on with his or her life. Adding to the financial issues, emotional aspects may cloud a person’s judgment regarding what is fair and what they are entitled to under California law.

Jennings  understands the complex issues regarding dividing up years of investments as well as real property. He is a skilled negotiator and can help assess what you are entitled to as well as suggest what is and isn't worth fighting for in a divorce. To schedule a free initial consultation, call 805-981-3937  or e-mail us today.

Community Property vs. Separate Property

Although one party may believe an asset should be equally divided (community property) , there may be many factors in determining how assets are split during a divorce and highly contested arguments do arise.

Contested assets may include:

• Property owned before the marriage
• Gifts or inheritances
• Personal injury settlements
• Family businesses
• Stock options
• Pensions and retirement accounts

Make Sure You Know Where You Stand

Often a forensic account is used if there is suspicion of one party hiding assets - severe penalties will apply if an investigation proves assets were not disclosed or were hidden to prevent proper division.
