Property Division

California is a community property state, and the court is mandated to first make a factual determination if property is community, separate, or mixed, and then divide the community equally between the spouses, and confirm each parties separate property to that person. Although it sounds simple, the division of property in a California divorce can be one of the most complex areas of civil litigation in the California courts. Our office has the years of experience and expertise to apply the complex rules of law and evidence to effectively present your case to the opposing party, and then the court if necessary. Let us help you understand the law as it applies to your case, so you can understand the issues, and then resolve your case in a way the law allows. To not be informed, or to try and settle your case without understanding how the law applies to you, can be a very costly mistake, and one that you may later regret.
