Division of Marital Property
The division of property process can be extremely stressful, however through the collaboration divorce process or mediation, you can reduce that stress and create unique solutions designed for your particular needs and the needs of your family. The marital property to be divided may include:
- Home or Residence
- Stocks and Bonds
- Investments
- Bonuses
- Debts
- Businesses
- Deferred Compensation
- 401(k)s/Pensions
Many factors go into determining how assets are divided in Connecticut:
- Length of the marriage
- Contributions of the parties
- Ongoing support obligations
- Difference in income between the parties
A Client Centered Approach
As a collaborative mediator, I work with you to find the most efficient and effective solutions based on your circumstances. You keep control of the process and the decisions, rather than giving it up to a judge. You and your spouse cooperate to find solutions that work now and into the future. Divorce ends a marriage but need not sever family ties or relationships.
I encourage my clients to consider a non-adversarial solution when possible. I can assist you through a more cooperative method such as mediation or collaborative divorce, which can help avoid the cost, time and contentious nature of litigation.
I am available to answer your legal questions.
