Palo Alto Property Division Lawyer
Protecting Your Assets During Divorce Disputes In California
For many in the Silicon Valley, issues of property division are of the utmost concern. A working spouse spends a lifetime accumulating assets in order to ensure the future financial security of loved ones. A non-working spouse may put a career on hold for the sake of the children and feels entitled to spousal support for his or her sacrifice.
When you face complicated matters regarding support and division of assets during your divorce, contact an experienced family law attorney for knowledgeable and creative solutions.

Debt Allocation And Assisting With The Sale Of Your Residence
California is a community property state, which means that marital debts as well as marital assets are divided equally upon divorce. When it comes to the family home, it might be the most valuable asset to divide or the home might be under water. Whether the home is sold or one party keeps the property, either course requires a number of steps – including but not limited to an appraisal, transfer of title, mortgage refinancing and reimbursement of separate property income contributed after separation for the benefit of the family home.
