Some exceptions to having to split assets and debts equally include:

• Non-material property
• Inheritance
• Property owned prior to the marriage
• Fault issues

Negotiations over property can be made between the spouses themselves, with the assistance of the parties’ attorneys, or with a third party mediator. Once the parties come to an agreement on how they want to divide the assets, the agreement is final. There can be no modifications to the property settlement except incases of fraud or clerical error.

If no settlement can be reached by the parties then the decision will be made at binding arbitration by the court. However you and your spouse want to divide your assets the Law Offices of Tony Zirkle can assist you through the proceedings and help you get the outcome that you want.
