Property Division

Division of Marital Property - Bellevue, Washington, Attorney

General Form

When a marriage dissolves, the parties need to divide the marital property equitably. Because Washington is a no-fault divorce state, the issue of who caused the divorce does not enter the property division calculations. However, other factors related to the divorce, such as the amount of child support or spousal support paid, can enter into those estimates. It is important to seek the advice of an experienced lawyer for help with property division so that all relevant assets, including stocks, bonds, pensions and other employee benefits, are included. We help develop solutions to problems related to property division.
