How Is Property Divided During An Ohio Divorce?

In many ways, the division of property, assets and debts during divorce proceedings can shape your future. Turn to Mahaffey & Associates, LLC, the Ohio law firm that understands how important property division is to you and your future. We can discuss your overall financial situation as well as any concerns you have regarding property and then work toward a favorable result.

Property division hinges upon marital and nonmarital property. Most of the property will need to be assessed a value prior to division. Contact the Toledo property valuation lawyers at our firm to arrange a consultation. We have extensive knowledge of methods for dividing property in the best interests of our clients.

Separate Vs. Marital Property

Marital property is property that is owned by both spouses; separate property is property that is owned by just one spouse. Generally, marital property was acquired during the marriage, and separate property was acquired before the marriage or was kept separate during the marriage. In Ohio, marital property will be divided equitably. Marital asset division often involves property such as:

  • Home
  • Real estate property
  • Vehicles
  • Boats and recreational vehicles
  • Investments
  • Retirement and pension accounts
  • Stocks
  • Business interests
