Do all assets become half owned by your spouse after marriage?

Cathy Rose Cook
Answered by attorney Cathy Rose Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cathy R. Cook, Attorney at Law
Any property owned prior to marriage is non-marital property. Anything added to non-marital property, such as a bank account, during the marriage is marital property.

WHEN YOU DIVORCE IS IT THE NEW JERSEY LAW THAT YOUR SPOUSE GETS HALF OF WHATEVER YOU HAVE WETHER THE SPOUSE HAS CONTRIBUTED OR IS NOT ON ANY DEEDS ?

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
There are a lot of special circumstances and no one answer fits all.  There should be equitable distribution, but what is equitable is not always half.  There needs to be some recognition of ownership of whatever property is the marital home, and the source of funds for other properties is relevant.  Were any of the assets inherited?  Any asset that is inherited, and does not become a joint asset is not subject to distribution

Payment of 50% of husbands pension was not paid to me

David Salvaggio
Answered by attorney David Salvaggio
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Based on the limited information that you are provided, your ex husband's answer makes no sense.  I am not sure what you mean when you say that you cannot get "any correct answer."  If you have not already done so, I think that you need to meet with a very experienced New Jersey divorce lawyer as soon as possible.   I offer what is called an Assessment, in which I will go over your situation in detail, answer your questions, and give you guidance as to the best course of action. Typically, the Assessment lasts about an hour.  The cost is $425. Your question does not specify the town in which you live.  My firm's offices are located in Morristown, NJ (Morris County).  We handle cases in all of the counties in northern and central New Jersey, including not only Morris County but also Somerset, Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Middlesex and Monmouth counties. If you wish to schedule an Assessment, please call my office (973-455-1220) and speak to the firm’s Client Intake Coordinator Dara Vanderhoof, who can arrange a mutually convenient date and time.
