The Property Division Process
Under Texas law, most property acquired during the marriage is community property. It will be divided on a fair and equitable basis, though not necessarily on an equal basis.
In representing you, Weinman & Associates will carefully review your financial situation. We will identify community property, place a value on it and determine a fair basis for a division of that property. We will also identify separate property assets, to make sure such assets are confirmed as your separate property and not considered as part of the community estate to be divided upon final divorce. This process can become very involved, particularly when marital assets are significant or when the marriage has lasted for some years.
Complexity can take many forms. For example, separate assets of the couple can become commingled and used to purchase a community asset such as a house. Weinman & Associates has extensive experience in tracing the transformation of assets and in their valuation. We will work to protect your interests at all stages of the legal process.
Negotiation or Litigation?
In most cases, we can negotiate a settlement that provides a fair and equitable distribution of marital assets. This can usually resolve all outstanding property issues in an efficient and affordable manner. In other cases, particularly those involving complex property division issues, we may have to litigate to protect your rights.
Our goal will be to protect your interests, place you in a secure financial position and enable you to move forward in a positive manner after divorce.
