Attorney in Albuquerque: The Division of Marital Property
Personal Service and Attention in a Client-Focused Practice
If you are considering filing for divorce in New Mexico or are already a party to a divorce proceeding, you may have many questions about the division of marital property. How do you determine what is community property and what is separate property? What about assets that have appreciated in value during the years of the marriage? You want an experienced lawyer to help you equitably distribute your marital debts and assets, one with the financial savvy to protect your rights.
At the Sandoval Law Office, attorney Les Sandoval spent 10 years in practice as an accountant, and now uses this experience to assist clients in dividing marital debts and assets. Contact our office to arrange a private meeting.
Helping You with the Division of Marital Property
When we help you secure an agreement for the equitable distribution of marital debts and assets, we put our accounting experience to work for you, preparing and analyzing balance sheets and financial statements. Once we have a picture of all the obligations and property in the marital estate, we work closely with you to find ways to fairly divide all the debts and assets, including:
- Real estate - first and second homes, vacation property, rental property
- Investments and bank accounts - stocks, bonds, mutual funds, money market accounts, joint checking and savings accounts
- Business assets, including property and potential income
- Retirement funds - IRAs, 401(k) accounts, stock options, pension funds
Often, as we are working on the division of marital property, we will learn whether a grant of alimony is warranted. Again, our extensive understanding of finances derived from our experience in accounting provides significant value to our clients.
