Jersey City Property Division Lawyers

Newark Property Settlement Attorneys

Everyone has heard a horror story about someone who was "taken to the cleaners" in a divorce.

The equitable disposition of property is one of the most complex and contentious aspects involved in the dissolution of a marriage. Many people don't realize that marriage is a partnership and that marital property is divided equally between the partners, no matter who earned it.

To ensure you receive your fair share of money and other assets in the division of marital property, contact a Jersey City property division lawyer at Feintuch, Porwich, & Feintuch today for a free consultation. We won't let your husband or wife take advantage of you.

New Jersey is a non-community property state. That means you may retain, in most cases, property you brought into the marriage, assets you received as a gift from a third party, property you inherited, and certain other assets. All other property is considered marital property and will be divided equally with your spouse.

Our property settlement attorneys will incorporate all debts and assets in the property settlement, including retirement funds, real estate, investments, stock options, employee benefits, bonuses, loans, and business property.

If your spouse has a pension plan, we will prepare a QDRO (qualified domestic relations order) to ensure you receive your fair share of the assets earned during the marriage.

If you are concerned that your spouse has hidden assets, we will retain a forensic accountant to track them down.

No matter how large or small your estate, you can trust the attorneys of Feintuch, Porwich, & Feintuch to protect your interests and defend your rights.
