California Property Division Laws

One of the most common questions Claery & Green receives from clients is "How is property divided in the state of California?"  Many people who are planning to divorce want to know this so they understand how their marital assets will be divided if they move forward with terminating their marriages.

According to the California family law, all property marital property is to be distributed equally between both spouses.  Marital property is considered any assets that are accumulated throughout the duration of the marriage.  Any property that is accumulated before or after the marriage is considered separate property and will not be subject to property division.
