Jacksonville and St. Augustine Asset Division Lawyer
Throughout the duration of your marriage — whether it was five, 10, 20 years or more — you and your spouse accumulated property, assets and debts. This property is called marital property. Martial property also includes increases in value of non-marital or premarital property due to use of marital funds or labor. During the divorce process, your marital property will undergo an equitable distribution. Beth M. Terry, our Jacksonville property division attorney, can ensure that property division during your divorce is handled in your best interests.
The law office of Beth M. Terry, P.A., delivers aggressive legal services our clients need. If you are seeking a fair and favorable division of marital property, we can help.
We Can Handle Even the Most Complex Property Divisions.
As a St. Augustine asset division attorney, Beth Terry is determined to secure the best possible outcome on your behalf. She regularly handles complex property division for clients with significant wealth, assets and business interests. Our attorney can readily identify if one party is hiding assets or undervaluing assets, and bring the true value of all financial components to the negotiation table. In addition to highly complex matters, we handle the division of:
- Marital homes
- Real estate/property
- Enhancement of non-marital property
- Bank accounts
- Retirement plans
- Qualified domestic relations orders (QDROs)
- Personal property such as artwork and family heirlooms
- Liabilities and debts
In Florida, courts start with the premise that all marital property should be divided as equally as possible. However, various factors can result in unequal distribution. For example, if one party gambled, had affairs or depleted the marital assets, that party may not receive an equal distribution. The courts can also consider non-financial contributions to the marriage, or if one party delayed his or her career for the other spouse's benefit.
Beth M. Terry can provide vigorous representation based on her years of experience in litigating property division in northeast Florida courts.
