NO, IN DIVORCE, YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO HALF OF EVERYTHING!
By Anthony C. Adamopoulos, Certified Divorce Mediator and 2022 Super Lawyer®
So often divorcing parties assume all property will be divided 50/50, many times each spouse has a contrary opinion as to what their rights are.
One thing is clear. You do not have a right to half of the marital assets.
Under the law, all property owned by each party is a marital asset and that property must be divided fairly, not equally.
So, who is going to decide what is fair? A judge you do not know, or the two of you?
If dividing assets is going to be a problem or the two of you just do not know how to do it, you can save a lot of money by having me help with the division; rather than litigating in a court setting.
As your mediator:
- I work hard with both of you to get a property division quickly and for less cost.
- I will help both of you identify all property and then, using respected mediation practices, guide the two of you toward a fair property division.
- When you work with me, the two of you work with just one person and one hourly fee. In litigation, you have two attorneys, and two hourly fees.
- We work in confidence. Mediation is not public.
Please call for a consultation, have all of your questions answered. It’s a smart move that will save you future costs and anxiety.
