THE BRIEFING · EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION
Equitable distribution is the process of dividing marital property in New York divorce. “Equitable” means fair - which can be 60/40, 70/30, or another ratio depending on contributions, earning capacity, waste, and need. Separate property stays with the owner unless commingled. We trace, value, and fight for every asset class.
What counts as marital property.
Assets acquired during marriage are generally marital - including pensions, homes, and business growth. Premarital assets and inheritances may be separate if documented. We trace commingled funds before the other side claims everything is marital.
Retirement and real estate.
QDROs for pensions and 401(k)s require precision. Real estate involves appraisals, mortgage allocation, and sometimes sale orders. We coordinate experts so distributions are enforceable - not disputed later.
Debt and dissipation.
Marital debt divides too - and spending that wastes marital assets can shift the distribution. We document dissipation and hidden transfers when one spouse tries to shrink the marital estate.
GENERAL INFORMATION, NOT LEGAL ADVICE. YOUR FACTS DECIDE EVERYTHING - AND THE CONSULTATION IS FREE.
