How Is Property Divided During Divorce? California Family Law Attorney Diane Anderson Explains

In California, most property and debt acquired during the marriage is split 50/50 during divorce. California is a community property state, meaning both spouses typically divide marital assets and debts acquired during the marriage evenly. However, if a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement was signed, that agreement may change how the property is divided. Assets owned before the marriage or inherited individually may also be considered separate property and thus not subject to division.
