Property Division

Dividing Marital Property Fairly In Your Divorce Is Crucial

As an equitable distribution state, Massachusetts law requires that all marital property be divided in a fair and equitable manner. These cases can be quite complex and frequently very contentious, and it is important that you have a qualified property division lawyer in Middlesex County with the ability to protect your interests.

Understanding Property Division In A Massachusetts Divorce

One of the most important aspects of property division is assigning an accurate value to each marital asset. We work with valuation experts who specialize in all types of property and can help us gain an accurate financial picture of the entire marital estate before the division of assets begins.

In Massachusetts, many factors are considered in property division during a divorce settlement. The following factors are mandatory for the court to consider in a property division case:

  • The length of the marriage
  • The conduct of the parties during the marriage
  • The age, health and station of the parties
  • Occupation
  • Amount and sources of income
  • Vocational skills
  • Employability
  • Estate
  • Liabilities and needs of each of the parties
